So Sandman,

> That wasn't my point! If it was I would have said it. But as long as you brought it up: The only thing I did was went to the trouble of putting together some clips that I thought presented unusual and in some cases better angles for viewing points that were being discussed. I referenced them on this site and the Setpro site because this is where I spend my internet baseball time. They were directed at a very limited number of individuals. As such, they were under the radar. It is interesting to me that the same people who are quick to point out that they are really the property of MLB are the ones who jeapordize the use of these clips by posting them for use by a much broader audience.

You did the work. I don't blame you for feeling proprietary about the clips. When I can remember where I got them, I often give credit on the clips I didn't create. Although sometimes I don't think the creator wants his name out there and I only mention the board or nothing at all. I just wanted to make sure you didn't think Sandman was being confrontational. I have not known that to be his nature.

I doubt that MLB cares unless we were making money off the clips. After all it's free advertising. But if they did start caring, you would think they would do something first with the commercial boards that post them within the board as opposed to one of us posting a link. But apparently that isn't a problem either. Who knows? Maybe sometime in the future.
