If the world leaders had a baseball team – I honestly believe we (America)
could play them and solve a lot of problems. Of course, being selfishly ego-centered...I
want to be the manager of the U.S. Team and hand pick "MY" team
of the best and...MEANEST ball players of all time. After nine
innings of the dirtiest, most hard fought, toughest ball game ever, I believe
most of the world's "punk" leaders would cower in the dugout and start to
call US - "SIR"! ...And now our starting
lineups...first of all for the visiting trouble making "World Team"!
Afghanistan President – Ashraf Ghani
China's President – Xi Jin Ping
Cuba's Leader – General Raul Castro
Iran's President – Hasan Ruhani
Iraq's Supreme Leader – Ayatollah Khamenei
North Korea – Kim Jong-un
Mexico's President - Enrique Nieto
Pakistan's President – Mamnoon Hussain
Russia's President Vladimir Putin
And....the Designated Hitter – Syria's Bahar Al-Assad.
And now, the United States All-Stars...!!
Babe Ruth
Willie Mays
Mickey Mantle
Ty Cobb – Plays anywhere he wants to play – meanest man in baseball
Ernie Banks – Let's whip 'em and play 2!
Yogi Berra
Bob "Fireball" Feller
Hammerin' Hank Aaron
Cal Ripkin Jr.
And the Designated Hitter....Stan "The Man" Musial...get the idea?
The World Team wouldn't stand a chance. We, the United States of America, would
dominate, diminish and "dust" these world punks in just nine easy innings. Imagine
North Korea's pudgy (fat) Kim Jong-un trying to get out of the way of a chin-high
fastball thrown by Bob Feller...OOH too bad. Hope he's alright!! (Tsk Tsk!) or
Putin on the mound pitching for the "world" against "Hammerin" Hank Aaron...CRACK!!
There's a long drive to left...it's gone – it's outa here!! (so is Putin!!)
or a play at the plate with Cuba's Raul Castro "trying" to steal home against Yogi
Berra...KAPOW!...Castro's on a raft back to Cuba! I only
wish this fictitious game could come true,...when all is said and done...I
believe WE would be where we should be...#1. Ty
Cobb, as I said earlier, perhaps the meanest man ever to play baseball said this,
"Baseball is something like a war. It's a red-blooded sport for red-blooded men.
It's not pink tea, and mollycoddles had better stay out of it. It's a struggle
for supremacy, a survival of the fittest"...He was right...PLAY BALL!
Don't forget Dr-History.com! Exciting episodes of the old West!! Now in 101 countries...101!!
And not one of them has said they're offended!
God Bless America!
