Tainted Love
Baseball Widow shows off her Latin in complaining about the overuse of the word "tainted" in describing everything in baseball:
"Taint" has become the catch-all accusation that appears whenever anyone is displeased about any aspect of the game. Are the Atlanta Braves' gazillion consecutive division championships tainted because the rosters have included a cokehead, a bigot, and a repeat DUI offender? Is a game "tainted" by a bad call? Is a series? A sport?
Baseball Musings is conducting a pledge drive in March. Click here for details.
