    When it comes to broadcasting baseball games, the term "most qualified" is highly subjective. I assume the consideration is who'll do the best job of reaching and/or expanding their audience.

    I have been listening to Ernie Harwell and Denny Matthews call the 1982 AL Division Playoffs on YouTube the past couple weeks, just great baseball radio

    Which is a good thing because under the old (not that old) NC fornication laws you had to meet twice for it to be an offense.

    Because the first five letters of my last name are “Rolly.” Sometimes, you just gotta change things up...I’ve been gone from the board for a long time.

    The need to do research on North Carolina fornication laws and laugh at the same time strikes me as particularly apt.
