As I expected some would do, you missed the whole point. You help make the writers point that simple sportsmanship is lost. Let the girl have her glory, and let the girls who helped her have theirs.

This was a small college softball game, for crying out loud, not the world series. The batter is a senior, has a career batting average of .153, hit her very first home run, and she messed up her knee going back to touch first base.

The two runs already scored won the game. Why not help her complete what could only have been a dream come true?

You win. I’ll stop.

Like preventing leg amputations, I won’t stand in the way of making dreams come true.

And what is it in my post that makes you think I don't fully agree with you? Did I really need to add a </sarcasm> tag?
