now about $100, and the funny thing is they cost less to make now than

You do realize that a ordinary wood baseball bat costs a hundred
bucks? A major league glove costs about only about 160, somewhat
surprising.

What's your point, that we're being gouged by corporations?


There you go again ..... those pesky corporations. You are starting to
sound like my Swedish grandfather who used to recite to us the prices for
everything in 1916 and how we were all getting ripped off in the 1980's.

BTW .... caught a few of the speeches tonight. Pelosi didn't seem to know
where she was, but Mrs.O. just finished delivering a very powerful and
moving message. Highlight of day one, IMO.

If you missed it, it's ok. You wouldn't have wanted to see his kids being
exploited anyway.
