What's With All the Spitting Among Baseball Players?

What is it with all the disgusting spitting that major league baseball players always engage in? Don't these idiots realize that viewers all over the nation witness this? Have they no sense of discretion?

I watched some of the games leading up to the World Series, and some of the World Series games, and I guarantee it, any given 15-minute block showed at least one player spitting like a baboon. What's wrong with these men who supposedly have it all together?

I'll tell you what's really going on. These buffoons are chewing tobacco (as if you already hadn't guessed), and this has got to be one of the dumbest, grossest things to do. How can anything be enjoyable, if it forces you to continuously spit gobs and gobs of your saliva out? All that yucky saliva keeps building up in your mouth, and it's so hideous, that you must spit it out, rather than swallow it. How can chewing tobacco provide enjoyment?

But I'm not going to attack the chewing tobacco industry. Instead, I am critical of the mental weakness of new Major League recruits, who are so mentally fragile, that they succumb to the team pressure to start chewing tobacco, if the minor leagues already haven't snared them into this disgusting habit.

These guys are supposed to exemplify physical fitness, yet they are just begging for throat and oral cancer down the road. Not to mention how bad their breath must smell, and how gross their brown teeth must look. And to think that most of these men have wives. What woman would want to get her face near a tobacco chewer, let alone kiss him on the lips?
