One more reason

It goes without saying, but baseball is the best sport ever invented. I don't have time to enumerate all the reasons why - the combination of individual skills with team play, it's democratic, there is no clock, it's equal parts mental AND physical, etc. ad infinitum - to name a few.

One other reason was in the Post this morning, namely a quote from DC United's Charlie Davis about a new celebration dance he is planning for the next time he scores.  A sport with celebration dances?  

Two more reasons why baseball is THE best sport ever are: there are no celebration dances; and if a player every DID one, the next time he came to bat he would be drilled in the head by the opposing pitcher - the way it should be. 

Celebration dances for doing what your supposed to do?  Pathetic in any sport, and thankfully not a part of the greatest sport.
