DECONSTRUCTING MAJOR LEAGE BASEBALL


DECONSTRUCTING  Major League Baseball 

When will MLB fans acknowledge  
and question the REAL Cheating 
taking  place right under their noses.

The Pitch Clock
The Pitch Count
THE CLOSER
The Netting 
The Expansion 
THE PHANTOM BASE RUNNER
The Biggest Form of Cheating?
THE TINY LITTLE BALLPARKS.

A 14 year old Mark Mcgwire could 
clear the fence, LEFT HANDED
Eddie Murray would have 500 Home Runs , 
FROM BOTH SIDES OF THE PLATE.
Mickey Mantle would be a Member 
of the 1000 HOME RUN CLUB
LEGENDARY HANK AARON would be a Member 
of the 1500 HOME RUN CLUB.

Why not give anyone and everyone 
who makes it to The Big Show a 6ft solid gold trophy  
for participating in Major League Baseball. 

Let's not forget how MLB cheated  Atlanta 
out of the ALL Star Game.
Or cheated the Fans out of seeing their ALL Stars 
by wearing those Diversified  Equity Inclusion Uniforms.

However, we just might see another 500 Career game winner. 
When they shorten the game to 7 innings. 
Requiring only 3 complete innings 
to qualify  for a win.

We just might see another 5000 strike pitcher ,
when MLB goes to Artificial Inntelligence 
and expand the strikeout zone from toe to chin.

INSTEAD , how about we celebrate  what was accomplished before the Insanity of Y2K. 

Not the 420 ft Monster HOME RUN ,
and totally forget that straight away 
Centerfield Tiger Stadium was 440 ft.

Not the 200 Strike Out Season knowing , 
the record is 383.

Not the 15 game win season knowing 
The last 30 game win season 
was more than  50 years ago

My real REAL question is...
Is MLB complicit in destroying the game of baseball ?
Are the people at the top , involved with Big Government and DEI infected Corporations trying  to destroy the memories and  Legends who established MonuMENTAL feats. 
Emphasis on mental. 
Is this what build back better is all about?
