The Ms believe that offense is so over-rated.

I mean, come on, moving those fences in is expensive, and you can’t cover the purchase of a JumboTron by just raising ticket prices.

Otherwise, they’re just not trying hard enough.

It might be as big as his ego.

Is the umpire union that powerful?

Instead we are left with ads, ads and ads. Not very exciting.
