Cal Ripken never should have broken Lou Gehrig's record. The right thing to do would have been to take a day off the game before breaking it.

It's not like Gehrig had a sprained ankle or something. He had ALS.

The classy thing to do would have been to let Gehrig keep the record. He was a great player. Deserves his spot in the Hall of Fame. But he's not entitled to that particular record.

  • Bravo. I couldn't agree more!

    However, being a resident of Baltimore, one isn't allowed to say such things out loud. Even possessing such thoughts can result in a beating with crab mallets.
