Re: [RC] athlete defined - Truman PrevattThe Bambino was a pretty robust fellow. He was known to show up from time to time at a game after a few too many in the local bar. But all that nonwithstanding, he sure could crush a baseball with a bat when he go up to the plate.Truman Ed Kilpatrick wrote: i remember reading a rather humorous story a few years back about a major league baseball player. he was a first baseman for philadelphia i think. during pregame warmups, a lady in the bleachers was near enough to carry on a conversation with him. she pointed out his somewhat ample midsection and the pouch of chewing tobacco in his pocket and stated that as a professional athlete he should set a better example. he replied,"lady, i'm not an athlete! i'm a baseball player!" :-) ed
