Specifically, I disagree with your conclusions [plural] that Mookie is the 13th man, and that he's "quit." I'm not going to split hairs over different personal opinions for what constitutes different gradations of quitting--pointless exercise, and that wasn't the intent of my response to you above.

One more thing: you responded while I was editing my original post in this thread, and your response was made before I'd added the following [sorry about that]:

[INDENT=3][COLOR=#000000]All this talk about Mookie mailing it in is misguided, IMO. Why tear a kid down who seems to be putting the team above his own self interests? Kudos to him for understanding that even practice players can make important [and often unrecognized] contributions.[/COLOR][/INDENT]

That pretty much sums up my opinion on this subject. I'm not trying to be argumentative, but bottom line: I don't see the need to cast aspersions toward a kid who is working hard behind the scenes, or the value in applying amateur armchair psychology to attribute meaning to his motivations.
