Sheesh, big time wrestling has nothing on baseball these days - including the steroids. Give me NASCAR any day. Men are men and with the exception of Juan Yawn Montoya andKasey Kahne, the combatants are red-blooded Americans.

New York City bans aluminum baseball bats
By Michael Hampton
Its city council has done virtually nothing of note except look for new and interesting things to ban.
The latest victim of the city’s rulers’ hatred of freedom is the common aluminum baseball bat.
The city council voted Wednesday to ban the baseball bats, with enough votes to override a
veto which had been promised by mayor Michael Bloomberg.
Councilors who voted for the measure painted it as a safety issue.

RE: baseball
A Scotsman moves to the United States and attends his first baseball game. The first batter approaches the batters' box, takes a few swings and then hits a double. Everyone is on their feet screaming "Run!!!"
The next batter hits a single. The Scotsman listens as the crowd again cheers "RUN!! RUN!!" The Scotsman is enjoying the game and begins screaming with the fans.
The fifth batter comes up and four ***** go by. The Umpire calls: "Walk." The batter starts his slow trot to first base. The Scot stands
up and screams, "Run ye lazy bastard rrrun!"
The people around him begin laughing. Embarrassed, the Scot sits back down.
A friendly fan notes the man's embarrassment, leans over and explains,
He can't run -- he has four *****."
The Scot stands up a nd screams: "Walk with pride, Laddie!"
