questech

Rating system implemented in the 2003 season to rate MLB umpires' performances. One of the worst ideas in baseball history.

QuesTech may have been a bad idea, but it couldn't possibly have been as bad an idea as making the All-Star Game winner have home field advantage in the World Series.

Pseudonym

A false name used to hide an author's identity.

A pseudonym could not be used in a prank call. That would not authoring anything.

My pseudonym on UrbanDictionary.com is Rodney Basil.

Edward Stratemeyer used the pseudonym Carolyn Keane to write the Nacy Drew series.

I did not use a pseudonym when I told Mr. Diputs that my name was Anita Life, because I said that to his face.

Baseball is fun, even if you are awful at it.

Quoting SpongeBob on UrbanDictionary.com is not fun. Those who do it should stop.
