Well, there’s no shortage of news now. Every day the gods throw thunderbolts, and woe to those who didn’t attend the duck and cover drills. Even the crumbs that fall from the table are nourishing after a lean winter. With any luck, Rob Manfred will fall off the edge of the earth.
I never thought I’d miss Bowie Kuhn. I understand that Manfred can appear in public only in semi-darkness, in order to conceal the strings. Indicting him would indict the entire owner class ... which is an enticing prospect to be sure, but even I don’t have drugs good enough to convince me that there’s any possibility of that happening.
