Brief and Obvious Points About The Utley Slide

And scene

Punishment that is based on how injured the player is... seems arbitrary, and hence, like you are just making things up because you feel bad that someone got hurt. Rather than, well, interpreting a clear and obvious rule book.

Also, and this is the obvious thing... whether or not you think Utley was wrong is pretty much dependent on who you want to win the series. (And if you don't care? Well, you probably don't care about the slide, either.)

Finally, it's a little bit telling that people want to talk about this more than any other aspect of the series, no?
