I don't think I wanted to know that was possible.
I remember all the good times me 'n Miller enjoyed
Up and down the M1 in some luminous yo-yo toy
But the future has to change - and to change I've got to destroy
Oh look out Lennon here I come - land ahoy-hoy-hoy

That happened to a guy I knew in high school during basketball practice.  He got kneed and ended up having to have surgery.
Crazy Joe McCluskey was fucking nuts.  It's why they called him Crazy Joe.

I wonder how many points that is worth in fantasy baseball?

It depends whether or not your league counts Past Balls.

Catchers having their cups shatter is not as rare as one might think. And never fun.

It's happened to me a couple of times.  I coughed blood once.  You want to die.  Literally.  And I mean literally as in really literally, you wish someone would kill you right there on the spot rather than suffer the horrendous pain.  There is no pain I can imagine worse than taking one in the nutsack.
The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.

One of life's great unanswerable comparisons.
I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing AstroTurf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, torture of Bud Selig.

Unless you live in the other 60% of the world.  Or El Paso.
Another trenchant comment by a jealous lesser intellect.

It's not a matter of choice, it's a matter of being biologically impossible to experience both.

Nothing compared to getting hit in the sack.
