Ripping a ball from a woman's hand is pretty lousy.

But re the OP of this thread: if kids were intended to catch foul balls or HR balls at MLB parks, they'd be bigger and stronger. Their day will come. Til then, they get 100% of the generosity of sideline ball girls/boys.

Maybe asshat thread isn't the place. It was just a hunch.

Mr. Ferriss offers advice about so many disparate things — not simply losing weight and building muscle and improving sex and living forever, but learning to hold your breath longer than Houdini (!) and hit baseballs like Babe Ruth (!!) — that paging through “The 4-Hour Body” is like reading the sprawling menu in a dubious diner, quite certain the only thing you’d dare order is the turkey club.
If I'm ever completely bored, I will read this discussion on the topic.
Tim Ferriss: 4-Hour-Hero or just another asshat?

They said the rock formation was loose and they feared it was dangerous. They were leading a group of teenage Boy Scouts on a trip when it happened.
