Oh, really?
Maury Wills with 100 bases he stole
Cute!
See, there’s the rub . . . stealing bases . . . what is the message that we are sending to the youth of America, that’s it alright to steal? Seriously, here is another rule that needs to be looked at. Why can’t it simply be called “Appropriation of an advantage by running to a base while nobody is looking?”
That way we can continue to teach our children that stealing is not only wrong, but that it is breaking one of the commandments!
Just think of the long-range ramifications of such a pro-American step! Children will no longer grow up to be Democrats who have been taught over the years that stealing is acceptable, thanks to our national pastime.
Just think! A world without liberals!
(To those of you in Rio Linda, the following is completely tongue-in-cheek, . . . maybe).
