ESPN replayed the toss. Lets be fair, I replayed in on tivo several times. The ball hit the ground beyond the plate be before it reached the catcher's mit.
Too bad he started out from halfway to the plate.
Kerry was less than the normal 60FT 6 inches from home plate--far less. He still couldn't get it to the catcher who was standing behind the plate in the normal position. It was a pathetic throw from a guy who has posed regularly over the last few months as a skier, windsurfer, hockey player, bicyclist, football player, etc.
Lighten up. It is not a matter of being fair. What's wrong with putting the other candidate up to ridicule when he comes into Fenway Park as a native son, is booed and doesn't perform? We did the same with Dukakais in the tank.
