20 Things That Won't Happen In Sports
Listed below are some things that almost certainly will never happen in sports but there are always exceptions:
1. The Red Sox will never ask David Ortiz to squeeze bunt with bases loaded.
2. Football players will never dunk a coach with Gatorade after losing a game in overtime.
3. We will never see a baseball coach wearing a business suit in the dugout again like Connie Mack did.
4. We will never see a football coach wearing a uniform and pads on the sideline.
5. A manager will never remove a pitcher from playoff game while winning the game to save him for a game that was never played...oops a certain manager did do that last month.
6. A football team ahead by three points will never kick an onside kick with three minutes left in the game.
7. You will never see Manny Ramirez or Barry Bonds sprint out of the batter's box when hitting a home run.
8. We will never see Steve Trachsel pitch a two hour game.
9. We will never see Juan Pierre hit five home runs in a season.
10. We will never see Roger Clemens turn down huge amounts of money to pitch two thirds of a season.
11. We will never see Alex Rodriguez ask for a paycut if he has a bad year.
12. Kobe Bryant and Barry Bonds will never put a team ahead of themselves.
13. Phillies fans will never stop booing bad players....they were booing their own players in 1957 when I saw my first major league game in ]Connie Mack Stadium and now 50 years later nothing has changed.
14. The Dolphins won't go 17-0 again anytime soon, but may go 0-16 this year.
15. We will never see a player play with the pain Mickey Mantle did during his career.
16. We will never see Mark McGwire, Rafael Palmeiro, Sammy Sosa or Barry Bonds actually telling the truth about their use of steroids while under oath.
17. Will never see the Red Sox finish 9th and the Yankees 10th like they did in 1966 when the AL had ten teams.
18. We will never see pitchers with 10-15 records ask for a paycut for a bad season but instead they will ask for a raise.
19. We will never see the player's union tell the players to cooperate with Mitchell investigation.
20. No pitcher under 30 today will win 300 games because of pitch counts or strike out 3000 batters for the same reason.
