Jason Davis: Reference your column in today's The Mountain Press, Sports: First, is that headline grammatically correct? I agree sorrow comes from being caught not from their actions. What I find intriguing are people such as yourself who are willing to watch a baseball game knowing what you are seeing is not real. What was a swing and a miss and a possible inning-ending-out may have been a hit moving players around the bases or possibly a game winning home run if the pitcher had not been cheating. A home run may have been a single or double or triple or an out on the warning track if the batter had not been cheating. A-Rod stole millions of dollars from the player(s) who came in behind him in the statistics. But everyone will close their eyes. Watching a MLB game is like watching Professional Wrestling with the exception the baseball players are not nearly as athletic. MLB, mirrors society. Cheating is OK unless you get caught. MLB players lack ethics, honesty and morality and the public loves them. Kind of like the same fascination the public has with members of the Mafia, which we all know does not exist. By the end of his career A-Rod will have received close to 1/2 a billion dollars, to play baseball. Is this country screwed up or what? Since you mentioned you are a fan of professional baseball as a reporter, you might want to check on the legality of the MLB championship being called the "World Series." Since the only other country represented is Canada it is hardly a "World" anything. We seldom win when playing internationally. Just another area where MLB and the fans delude themselves. One might ask "What are they smoking?" But we know.. Nice column... |
