Elijah_Price: How certain are you that you've
never taken ill? |
 |
Dunn:
I don't know. .249% ? |
 |
Elijah_Price: I've
studied the form of baseball cards intimately. I've
spent 1/2 of my playing career in Cincinnati in a hospital
bed with nothing to do but alphabetize my complete set of
1992 Score baseball cards. |
 |
Elijah_Price:
This game has seen its share of disasters.
I watched the aftermath of the '94 strike, I watched the
2002 All-Star game end in a tie. I watched the
steroid scandals which have plagued baseball. |
 |
Elijah_Price: I
watched ESPNews, waiting to hear a very specific
combination of words, but they never came. Then one
day I saw a news story about the steroids investigation,
and I heard them: |
 |
Elijah_Price:
"There is a player who has hit 45+ home
runs, and he is miraculously not using steroids." |
 |
Elijah_Price:
I have something called "an inability to
play four fucking games in a row without all of my bones
decomposing, reducing me to a jelly-like mass." |
 |
Elijah_Price: If there
is someone like me in the world, at one end of the
spectrum, couldn't there be someone else opposite from me
at the other end? Someone who never gets sick, never
gets implicated in steroids scandals like the rest of us? |
