I was going to post the same thing, Eagle Eye...

...and as far as live and let live, I'm just saying I'm not going to rip this league because it has chosen to take a path that, I personally, would not choose to take.

I, personally, love the conclusion that Rich Gossage came to when describing the religious turmoils that involved the "moral" wing of the Padres and the "immoral" (Birchers, or John Birch Society Members v. Bingers, the beer and pizza guys) during the '85-'86 seasons.

<blockquote>quote:<hr />"What are you guys doing praying before you go out to pitch? Don't you think God has more important things to worry about than whether you paint your next pitch on the outside corner?"

"We've put our trust and faith entirely in his plan," they said.

"All I know is that the plan better be to keep the fastball down in the strike zone,"...

Baseball and religion don't mix...<hr /></blockquote>
