[Marlo Oaks, Romney's Father: "What are we teaching our kids? Are we teaching them that it's okay to pick on the weakest person?"] We should be teaching our kids that the real world holds no punches. People complain kids are growing up faster than ever yet I believe we coddle them to excess. And besides, what idiot puts the weakest batter directly after the team's power hitter? Did the Giants ever bat Dave Dravecky in the 5 spot? Only slow pitch softball has the "walk a batter and the next auto walks too" rule, which btw applies only to girls in mixed leagues.

How about any of the games from Tron? Grid Bugs, Light Cycles, Battle Tanks and my favorite... Discs of Tron. Also cool because teh 1337s are called users. Wizard's chess from Harry Potter is pretty killer... I'm from Bakersfield, CA so Running Man (He was the Butcher of Bakersfield) is up there for me. Funny Arnold is now governator of CA. and finally... The XFL.

Are You Smarter Than a Tenth Grader?
I was actually the pitcher in an incident nearly identical to the first, minus the base runner. Poor kid took a hanging curve ball in the chest and ended up striking out because of it. His parents in the stands directly behind home plate weren't too happy...
