On The Bush Invocation Of Viet Nam
[Read the article: Ari Fleischer: It gets worse]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Who would be the one person in America who would be most suspect, most likely to be inaccurate, most likely to spin, and least worthy of attention in delivering their analysis of some American historical event.
I'd say it's President Bush. Or, more specifically, the people dreaming up and writing the words that he's saying.

As To The Reds Being In It
[Read the article: King Kaufman's Sports Daily]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Sure they are.......Just find me another example in the history of baseball where a team last in the league in team ERA came storming down the stretch to overtake a substantial deficit.

Did You Ever Try?
[Read the article: King Kaufman's Sports Daily]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Telling the teacher to shut up back?
The Reds are a poor pitching team, with an erratic, inconsistent offense trailing 3 teams by a substantial margin with 35 games left. That equals zero shot. None.
If you have a really good team trailing only one team by 8 or 9 games, it would be an outrageous longshot.

Speaking Of The Reds
[Read the article: King Kaufman's Sports Daily]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I watched them again last night. The TV crew teamed up with the Reds and put a mic on the shirt of a Reds assistant coach, and touted it as throughout the game we will give you snippets of what you would hear and what goes on in the dugout during a game.
That is a blatant fraud. You'd need to place the mic in there without the team knowing it to hear what usually goes on. By putting the mic in there and notifying the team, you are going to get a load of manure. All the way to the point of the coach deciding before the game things to say to impress the fans. And the rest of the team would have to be alerted to NOT say what they normally say because there's going to be a mic in here.
Same goes for all this reality crap like The Hulk Hogan family show, or Ozzy Osbourne, or Gene Simmons...You put recorders in there and let the subjects know it, you are not going to get a look at everyday life. Or anything close. They will alter or contrive everything they do and say.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]You're a good kid...but I get the impression, possibly mistakenly, that you are trying to get me to go somewhere else. You are aware I'm going premium aren't you?
In any event I concur with you. A congregation of American sportsfans these days, where-ever found, differs only superficially from a herd of cattle.

Mostly On Topic
[Read the article: King Kaufman's Sports Daily]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I watched parts of the Little League World Series.....I'm opposed to the rout rule. They stopped some game at 22-3 after 4 innings. A good ass-kicking is a special treat and should be completed.
We drove to Saint Louis to watch the Cardinals on Saturday. That new ballpark is damn nice. But you have to go down, get your hand stamped, and exit the stadium to smoke. That sucks. There are areas I noticed out by the concession stands away from the body traffic on each level where they should put a receptacle and allow it.
On the generational fielding thing----I went with my Dad. He's coming up on 80. He grew up in Pennsylvania and saw teams from both leagues play. He says now you see 2 or 3 defensive plays a game that you saw once a week back then.
Mike Shannon's place is a zoo after the game. I painted my finger and toe-nails red and white and wore flip flops for the game. The chicks loved it. Had a small problem with not standing or removing my hat for the national anthem. Some self-appointed sargeant of the patriotism police behind me asked me what my problem was. While it was playing. So I told him his talking was disrespectful.
Those capsules they put you in to visit the top of the arch are too small. And that casino boat does not have a poker room for Christ's sake. It's almost all slot machines. Is there any greater testament to human stupidity that 10 acres of schmucks feeding those machines? I mean, other than the republican party.

Oh Yeah
[Read the article: King Kaufman's Sports Daily]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Braves had a runner on third, fly ball to right. It was a tad beyond medium depth. Ankiel hit the catcher standing on the plate no bounce, chest high. No loft on the throw at all. Runner stayed.
From 275 feet he's on the money. From 60 feet he has no idea where the hell it's going.
