CNN has an article about Baseball legend "Buck" O'Neil (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/baseball/more/07/18/bc.bbo.buckatbat.ap/index.html?cnn=yes). O'Neill, a Negro-league legend and the first black coach in MLB history, was recently denied access to the hall of fame. His hometown team, The "T-Bones" have taken up his cause and have persuaded the league to allow O'Neill, 94 years old, to get 2 ABs during the all-star game. And here is the kicker. CNN's unbelievably stupid and misleading headline...the headline that should get some copy editor fired somewhere...
"Batter, 94, gets shot at all-star game"
