Today in the WBC

Some turn on, some tune in, but most drop out
Roberto Kelly quit as manager of the Panamanian team citing a lack of support from Panamanian baseball officials. Anibal Reluz takes over.
Manny Ramirez has dropped out of the WBC according to Red Sox owner John Henry. However, Ramirez's agent, Gene Orza, says that isn't official yet.
Tommy Lasorda's chiding of players who are dropping out of the WBC is not nearly as persuasive as Pope Urban II's speech that kicked off the Crusades back in 1095.
At this rate, 'WBC' is going to stand for 'Wiffle Ball Classic,' as in two-on-two, with a strike zone marked in black tape on Lasorda's garage door. At least we know nobody's going to get hurt now (unless you count Bud's bruised ego).
By the way, that Pope Urban reference was hilarious.
