Possibilities

Michael Brown, 6' 4", 292 lbs. ; Malcolm Brown, 6'2", 320 lbs. .

Michael was a troubled teen, by some accounts a petty criminal, a drug user, a bully.

Malcolm is a Defensive Tackle, the 32nd choice in the recent NFL Draft, by the Super Bowl Champion New England Patriots.

Both of similar size, one was an unfortunate, the other very fortunate.

If only someone had been able to guide Michael along a path to fortunate circumstances.

In football, should a fumble stop play at the point of the fumble, with possession of the ball not changing ? Would the new rule result in fewer injuries, a more wide open game ?

Should Lance Armstrong have kept fighting the doping charges ?

Yankees' Star Catcher Jorge Posada to the Hall of Fame ?

Should the fans have a say, based on "one fan, one vote", in who gets elected to the various sports' Halls of Fame ?

Earned Run Attribution

For example, a pitcher allows a baserunner, or runners, and then is replaced by a relief pitcher.

The runner, or runners, subsequently scores, or subsequently score, an earned run, or runs, before the half of the inning is over, as a result of the relief pitcher's pitching.

The earned run, or runs, is, or are, charged to the first pitcher.

A more accurate charging of a run, or runs, would result if fractional, or decimal, runs are charged, according to the number of bases allowed.

For example, the first pitcher allows a double, is replaced by a relief pitcher, who allows a double, which scores the baserunner, to a batter that half inning.

The first pitcher would be charged half, or .50, of an earned run; the relief pitcher would be charged half, or .50, of an earned run.

Each has allowed two bases, half, .50, of a run. If the above runner scored as an unearned run, only the number of bases allowed as earned would be charged, to the pitcher who allowed them.

The 2011 Women's World Cup Soccer Championship Game was tied in regulation time. Then they had a shoot-out to determine which team won. Why not have co-champions in the circumstances of a tie in regulation time ?
