Why oh why does Fox Sports allow garbage like Dayn Perry's post about Babe Ruth slip through to the website? The sebaceous combination of tripe and drivel that Perry delivered is what drags sports writibg down to sports refuse in a few odious paragraphs. Why a writer would take the time and effort to diminish the achievements of a true sports icon while refusing to give an equal bash to a true sports fraud is more than mystifying. It's just pathetic. Maybe Perry is so jealous that he lives in an era of fakes and posers that he can't stand giving praise to a hero. Maybe he's just ugly enough inside to stomp on the grave of a legend. Either way, he seems to have acquired a certain bitterness, and it is not becoming. We should mourn the loss of Ruth's record, because now, just like it was set by a man who represented the best part of baseball, it has been tied by the poster child for the downfall of America's past time. The act of digging up era comparisons, and fence lines to lessen the achievement of Ruth serves no purpose other than to open the discussion for how Bond's achievement should be lessened not because he had the benefit of chemical supercharging, but a different pitcher's mound, unbelievably better weight training, equipment, (honest) nutritional science, and a potentially diminished talent pool due to expansion. But for some strange and ugly reason, Perry didn't bring that discussion to the table. Somewhere in his presentation of his opine, Perry either willingly or stupidly made the first error of statistics. He forgot to eliminate bias. That's just sad. Tell me this hateful junk slipped through the garbage dump and onto the website, Fox. Please, just say it ain't so.
