	Consider yourself flamed! I don't yawn watching a good finesse pitcher
	display the art he has acquired. If you think this is something you
	only find in the AL you've been sleeping. Granted you might see more
	blazing fast low pitching in the NL, but the true quality pitchers
	that last learn 'finesse'. Look at Dwight Gooden already realizing
	that fastballs don't work alone. Look at Tom Seaver, who pitched for
	years in the NL, using his 'finesse' along with his good fastball.
	Thanks for the gift to the AL, METS; it's a pleasure watching Tom
	in whatever league he plays.
