Friends, For how many years do we have to hear the same hackneyed arguments
about the DH? Believe me it's here to stay, whether or not the Senior
Leaguers adopt it, and who the hell cares if they do or they don't.
I personally think there ought to be designated runners, who can pinch run
at anytime for anyone as often in a game as possible. By the same token,
there ought to be pinch fielders, so those poor "good field- no hit" slobs
in the minors can make a living too. By this I mean, there ought to be a
defensive team and an offensive team, just like in football.
Yeah!! Let's give everyone a job.
	As a matter of fact, now that I think about it, there ought to be
designated fans too. So that America, instead of sitting in front of
it's tv tube, guzzling beer and getting fat; can do something worthwhile
instead.
