Shoeless Joe Jackson should not be our primary target.
It is "Meyer Wolfscheim" who must bear the brunt of our inquiries.
"Let us show our friendship for a man when he is alive and not after he is dead,' he suggested. "After that my own rule is to let everything alone."
Your rule. Not mine.
Further, this is the perfect time of year to think back on Superbowl III and the claim of legendary lineman Bubba Smith, a member of the heavily favored Baltimore Colts who were defeated by Joe Namath's New York Jets:
"This might sound crazy, but I don't think the game was kosher. In order for the merger [of the AFL and NFL] to go through [the Jets] had to win. If you read the terms of the merger, if [the AFL] didn't establish credibility by the end of three years, the terms of the merger were null and void. You're talking the difference between millions and billions of dollars. The [betting] line opened at 18 and went down to 15 or something like that because a big bet had been placed on the game. And I know where that bet came from. It came from Baltimore, from someone on the team, from what I understand."
Smith also noted that Baltimore's MVP quarterback Earl Morall never threw to a primary receiver in that game.
Not once.
Go Pats!

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.
