Yesterday while listening to talk radio in the car, one of the hosts mentioned his favorite law, domestic or foreign. According to this guy, in Chile, if a husband is arrested for DUI, his wife must go to jail and serve his term for him. Something about not damaging the family by taking away the breadwinners’ ability to provide for his kin.
Now, I have no idea if this is an actual law or not, and a cursory check of the InterWebs could neither confirm nor deny it.
But just imagine this concept: some poor schlub, while listening to his wife go on about neglecting chores, blah, blah, blah, suddenly has the ability to pick up the car keys and a case of beer and look at his wife and say: “Keep it up and you’ll get 30 days.”

It has now been confirmed that you no longer have to a GREAT player to make the Baseball Hall of Fame. You just have to be a very good player for a long time. Case in point: Andre Dawson, who followed on the heels of guys like Robin Yount, Paul Molitor and others.
It used to be that you had to dominate the sport, or at least your league. No more, and with this criteria, I’m sure Blyleven will get in next year.

Elvis Presley left the building more than 32 years ago. In his honor, let’s all strive to be TCB today and every day….
