Some summer dreaming: imagine that we can recast -- overhaul -- that which exists as the lamentable in the contemporary pro sports landscape. It would be within our power to vanquish the hooligans, the record-stealing cheaters, and the greed merchants, all of them, and replace them with clones of quality character, of athletics' admiration-worthy. One stipulation: we select our replacements from the present or the recent past, to illustrate that there are in uniform better angels already among us. (Just not enough of them) I welcome your additions.

To be silent about today's status quo is to be complicit in it, no?
