Isn't that mark twain?\n\nI read that just this year but i basically forgot it because i read a lot of stuff. Does it have to do with a bar bet with frogs or a frog doing something and he doesn't do. Well I don't know but here's the story.

The old man, Joe Kennedy, enlisted the aid of the mafia and organized labor to get his son as Pres.  After coming to office, instead of assisting the mob ties, Jack appointed his brother as attorney general and went after organized crime.  J Edgar Hoover, head of the FBI, would not only not cooperate in this effort, which should have been the function of his organization, but hindered efforts, so the Kennedy bros were after his hide, too.  THis leads me to suspect that elements of the FBI as well as the mob were into the assassination and the coverup.  Wasn't it Dorothy Killgallin or Arlene Francis who had the only interview with one of the assassins and called a friend that night to say she would spill the beans and she died that night?  THen Marilyn Monroe had an affair with both Kennedys and had a diary and called a friend to say she was coming out with some secrets the next day and she died that night and the diary was nowhere to be found and her house was bugged, but nobody knew who bugged it.  THere are some very evil people in the US government who are guilty of many of the things that we have always accused the old SOviets of.

Let me say this: Shoeless Joe Jackson was an innocent man. I have read books about him, and he:\n1. Declined the money offered to him by gamblers, and a teammate came in and threw it on his bed.\n2. Told Charles Comisky about it, but he said he didn't care, because Jackson was illiterate.\n3. He asked his manager to bench him for the series when all else failed, he wasn't.\n4. He went on to have one of the best world Series ever, batting .400, making no errors, and hitting the only Home Run in the Series.\n\nSo to answer you question, yes, I do think Joe should be reinstated, because he was one of the best hitters in history. He is the only rookie to hit .400, and he had the 3rd best career average when he was kicked out.

* Richard Connell, in the year 1919, became a freelance writer. He wrote several short stories such as "The Most Dangerous Game" in 1924, also known as "The Hounds of Zaroff". "The Most Dangerous Game" concerns  a big game hunter trapped on an island with a fellow hunter who, bored with normal hunting, hunts humans to meet his discretion. In 1924 the short story "The Most Dangerous Game" was awarded the O. Henry Memorial Award. He had became one America's best kown short story writers. He died in Beverly Hills, California of a heart-attack on 22 November, 1949 at the age of fifty-six.\n * The thrill of following a character, in this case Sanger Rainsford, through this game is suspense alone. At the beginning of the story gets you going when he falls off the boat into the water and has to spend the night at the island. The island that him and his friend had just been discussing as weird. The following morning he tracks his way through the island with the help of a trail he found. Once he gets to the house the rest is full of restlessness moments; when he's up in the tree and Zaroff is right below him, in the swamp when you know Zaroff is coming, and the end.\n* The dialogue between Sanger and Zaroff was at first welcoming at the front door where they met. Gradually Zaroff began to speak of his intentions changing the meanings of his words to vile and wicked, but keeping the same tone and feel. Sanger, on the other hand, was petrefied with terror as he was trying to figure out how a man could think, let alone do, such a thing. He had several emotions going through his head and at the same time trying to find some hint of joke or way out of it. Both of the charactes thoughts showed through their voices; Zaroff stayed the same and Sanger was getting frightened.\n* There were a few unexpected points in this story and they helped give the story egarness and suspense. The smaller ones were strunge throughout the story such as when Zaroff did not catch him when he could have at the tree. When he hurt Zaroff, stuck a knife in Ivan, and escapes the dogs are also unanticipated turn of events. Although, all were needed twists the biggest of them all lays at the end of the story. This unforeseen point was when Sanger got back into the home and into Zaroff's bedroom where he proceeded Zaroff into a duel. In the resulting win was the ending and the biggest twist, becuase the winning person was indeed Sanger.

Synopsis:\nHotshot young college pitcher Jack Faber returns after a stint in a summer baseball league to find a new baseball coach who resents his success, cockiness, and talent and who sets out to destroy Jack's confidence in himself and his pitching ability.\n\nSynopsis:\nJack Faber was the top pitching prospect in America at the college level. And after his first year in the fabled Cape Marlin Baseball Summer League, he was unanimously voted MVP. At the top of his game, he returns to school to find there's a new coach who resents young Faber's cockiness and success, and who is determined to bring him down. Through a series of humiliating circumstances, Faber finds his confidence shot and eventually cannot trust himself to even throw a ball, much less hold one.\nSurrendering to his lost talent, he quits baseball. But his Cape Marlin coaches want him back. Against the backdrop of the glorious baseball parks by the ocean, Faber's coaches refuse to accept his failure and vow to help him rediscover his talent, his heart, and his passion for the game.\n\n\n\n- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - \nBest-selling author Patrick Robinson writes as Spike Bailey in this story of a young pitching talent who loses his ability to pitch and struggles to find it again, set against the backdrop of the glorious Cape Cod Baseball League. Jack Faber is a young hotshot pitcher from St. Charles College in Louisiana, and his first two years there were of such impact that he was scouted by no fewer than six coaches form America's leading College Baseball League, the famed summer league on Cape Marlin (a stand-in for Cape Cod) off the coast of New England. There the best young ballplayers in the United States have spent their summers for more than fifty years, and reputations are won and lost-for nine weeks in the high summer, it is besieged by Major League scouts. His first summer is a terrific one, with perhaps the best pitching performances anyone has ever seen both by his team, the Seapuit Seawolves and the league in general. He returns home a hero. But things begin to unravel when St. Charles's new coach will not brook any "prima donna" behaviour. He slowly suffocates Faber's desire and enthusiasm to a point that Faber cannot trust himself to throw a pitch. His junior year ends in shame and he decides to hang up his cleats. But the Seawolves want him back, and Jack returns to beautiful Cape Marlin-not only to find his pitching ability but himself. \n- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - \nEach summer, on the fields of glorious Cape Marlin, off the New England coast, the nation's best college players gather to play the most important baseball of their lives.\n\nJack Faber is a young hotshot pitcher with an unhittable slider and a rocket for a fastball. He plays for the fabled Seapuit Seawolves and dreams of making the Big Show. But a new coach, the scowling Bruno Riazzi, a former pro catcher, resents the kid's celebrity status and decides to knock him down a peg or two. And he stops at nothing to make it happen.\n\nHumiliated, Jack loses his lifelong art, and with it his passion for the game, as well as, mysteriously, his ability to throw. A devastated Jack Faber is released from the St. Charles College roster. But the Seawolves coaches won't give up on him. They bring Jack back to Cape Marlin, determined to help him rediscover his lost talent. He finds himself again under the summer sun, coaches and old friends standing by him. But in the end it will be up to Jack.\n\nBased on a true story, Slider celebrates the national pastime, a game that can break grown men's hearts -- as well as make them whole again.\n- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Crazy guess, but I think I remember that it's Shoeless Joe Jackson's Jersey Number. \n\nShoeless Joe played for the 1918 Chicago "Black" Sox who threw the World Series (the last time the Sox were in the World Series). He was part of the 8 players who were thrown out of baseball forever.\n\nI know it's a stretch, but that's all I got...
