MLB Is Down With The Kids, Dawg

Major League Baseball last weekend hosted the second annual (deep breath) "Little League Urban Initiative Jamboree." There are countless things that are amusing about this. Here are a few:

1. This is the first time the words "Urban" and "Jamboree" have been used in the same sentence. (Our mental picture is of Bud Selig picking a banjo in front of a bunch of confused kids in cornrows.) 2. This "urban" event is taking place in the gritty burg of Williamsport, Pennsylvania. 3. It, of course, rained all weekend in Williamsport.
