Drastic times call for drastic measures, TedHeads. In light of umpire Bob Davidson's comments about Ted Lilly and his ejection from Monday night's game, we felt the need to stand up and proclaim Ted's innocence. Let's look at the facts...Ping: Davidson's comments from the Tribune, "There was no contact," Davidson said. "We never came close, on his part or mine. And everything he said to [the media] was bull. Everything I read in the paper that he said was untrue. He never said one of those words. What he said to me, you couldn't print in the paper."
Pong: From Jim Hendry, "We all know Ted Lilly is a real stand-up guy. From an umpire's point of view, I don't think Ted is considered in any way, shape or form in this game as a guy that complains. You don't see Ted out there on the mound, complaining about pitches, rolling his eyes, walking around the mound. I would think Ted's reputation with umpires is real good. He's a winning type pitcher. He's a fierce competitor, and his reputation and his record stands for itself. He's never lied to me. I like Ted a lot."
Honestly, it doesn't really matter...Ted might get slapped on the wrist with a fine or maybe even a game suspension but it's not going to affect his start this Friday so, all in all, who the hell cares, right? Ted is still a god in our eyes (not the God but a god), Bob Davidson smells the poop and the world continues to spin.
Most impressive here is that Ted jumped the fence to continue his argument with Bobby on the field...cat-like reflexes, eagle-eye vision and a Mordor-like fire burning in his belly that we cleverly like to call Tedtensity.
Sorry, Dodgers--y'all don't have a fighting chance this Friday afternoon...
