DISCLAIMER

Just in case someone new to this forum (and the baseball world in general) is reading this stuff, the above post by Bob Jenkins was made tongue-in-cheek, and was in no way meant to be serious. Please do not follow any of this advice, as it is a joke.
At least the last sentence applies to Steven's post as well.
