It was a simpler time in human existence.
Once in which status quos were respected, instead of intentionally broken.
The way life should be.
Somewhere along the line, baseball ruined everything.
All of a sudden, nerds had a place in sports.
We lost our way as a society without even knowing the fabric thread was pulling apart.
But I think we’ve finally reached a breaking point thanks to Benjamin Solak.
But you might do that with literally anything.
The dinosaurs should have built an iron dome around the planet to avoid getting wiped out by the meteor.
Archduke Franz Ferdinand should have hit a roll back to avoid getting assassinated to start WWI.
Magic Johnson shouldn’t have had unprotected sex with all those women.
The whole anti-bullying campaign really put us in a bind there.
You couldn’t call them out because you were fearful of getting labeled as a big mean bully.
But fortunately for everyone, kinda looks time is changing.
And guys are finally starting to stuff nerds back into the lockers again.
Okay so we have a tale of two Ryans here.
Leaf was a little more aggressive and may have crossed a few lines or two.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
We’ve gotten so caught up in the numbers of sports.
Whether it’s stats, or contracts, or win probabilities, or whatever.
Sports aren’t about numbers.
Pretty simple if you ask me.
Numbers don’t play ball, athletes do.
