Some don't like the team's current nickname, considering it a pejorative.<br />
<br />
Should it be changed ?<br />
<br />
If yes, to accommodate the justifiable preferences of the objectors, perhaps a public naming suggestion, voting, selection website may be established, or it might be done via Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Pinterest, Tumblr, etc..<br />
<br />
Herewith are a few offerings to start the conversion conversation :<br />
<br />
The Washington Reds, the Washington Skins, the Washington 'Skins, the Washington Rothskins, the Washington Natives, the Washington DCs, the Washington Ringtones, the Washington Rubies.<br />

For example, a pitcher allows a baserunner, or runners, and then is replaced by a relief pitcher.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
The earned run, or runs, is, or are, charged to the first pitcher.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

A pizza purveyor is offering some of its pizzas at "half price" if the Yankees score six runs or more, win.<br />

Does that provide the pizza purveyor with an incentive to root for the Yankees to score less than six runs, to score six or more runs but lose ?</div>

Words similar to the above, to that effect, have appeared, or have been spoken, innumerable times, since the Draft.<br />

Did the Jets have second thoughts because of Tebow's demonstrativeness of religion ?<br />
<br />
Did Mark Sanchez play well enough to keep the starting position ?<br />
<br />
Tim Tebow cleared waivers, is now a free agent.<br />

Was the Boston Marathon Bombing the product of another Newtown Nut ?<br />
<br />
Anathema as it was, at least this time it wasn't with a gun.<br />
<br />
A situation which just goes to prove the NRA right ?<br />
<br />
Guns aren't the only source of violence against humanity. Just look at 09/11, when plastic knives and human sacrificers almost brought down an empire, with hijacked airliners.<br />
<br />
Even if the Second Amendment were repealed, a nut could still wreak havoc.<br />
<br />
What's the public to do ?<br />
<br />
Come, let us enjoy our sports without fear. Come, let us have civilization in gear.<br />
<br />
Education which includes the proper use of, respect for, guns, along with shooting range practice, if feasible, in our public, in our private, schools' curriculums may be a start.<br />
<br />
Education which includes learning the methodologies of non-violent civil disobedience, like those of Christ, Thoreau, Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr., may help follow up.<br />

Should the World Baseball Classic be discontinued ?<br />
<br />
Post what happened to First Baseman Mark Teixeira, the New York Yankees may think so.<br />
<br />
Post what happened to Third Baseman David Wright, the New York Mets may also think so.<br />
<br />
Or perhaps the WBC should be turned into a virtual, fantasy, event, the World Baseball Fantasy Classic, to eliminate the risk of injury, to eliminate the additional, excess, number of games, innings, played, to eliminate being away from the team.</div>

He used banned substances, banned procedures, through his cycling career to enhance performance.<br />

According to the US Anti Doping Agency, most cyclists did the same.<br />

He would have been at a competitive disadvantage if he hadn't done it.<br />
<br />
Were they, was he, wrong ? Was, is, the ban wrong ?<br />
<br />
Should the banned substances, the banned procedures, have been allowed ?<br />
<br />
Should the banned substances, the banned procedures, be allowed retroactively ? Should any and all penalties associated with the use of PE Drugs, of PE Procedures, be rescinded and removed ?<br />

So Road & Track is moving from Newport Beach to Ann Arbor, to be near the center of the auto industry, to be close to its fellow Hearst Auto publication, Car<span style="font-size: xx-small;"> AND </span>Driver.<br />
<br />
Consolidation of the publications' back office, etc., functions, is planned.<br />
<br />
Perhaps the editorial functions can follow. After all, who needs to publish more than one automoto mag ? <br />
<br />
<b>Car Driver Road Track </b>? <b>Car Road Driver and Track ? </b>How would you name it ?<br />
<br />
Does the move leave Motor Trend as the only major auto magazine located in sunny So Cal ? If so, it has a <i>defacto</i> monopoly on the sushine, on the warmth, year round.</div>
