MasterGakke 09/02/19 8:51:32 PM #11:	I don't know how to frame it, but something about a rule them lets somebody with heavy boots kick Bob Nutting in the testicles over and over until he sells the team to Mark Cuban. Also, being excited at baseball because of home runs doesn't work when it's clear to anybody with a brain that the ball is different than before.
