JOSH: I just wanted to make sure because, you know, it’s an important distinction. HRISHI: An American fighter jet goes down in Iraq, and a rescue mission ensues to find the pilot. But, it’s a covert operation, so CJ has to mislead the press. Toby’s brother is onboard the space shuttle Columbia, but it’s having mechanical difficulties and can’t land. Plus, Josh has to meet with the Vice President to bring him around to the Bartlet administration's plans for campaign finance. President Bartlet travels to Rosalind, Virginia, to speak at the Newseum and give a live town hall meeting. But as they’re exiting, S#&* goes down and shots ring out.

It has been an historic World Series: The first outside the United States and the first won by a team based in Canada. And Pat "North of the" Borders was named MVP. Catchers in fact figured heavily in the course of this series. It was a World Series that demonstrated certain truisms of baseball: Good pitching dominates good hitting, and in a close series the weaknesses of a team become glaring. In both the case of the Blue Jays and the Braves this latter proposition was true.

But subjective claims of harm are hard to prove and are often thwarted by First Amendment protections, because judges remain reluctant to regulate expressive and commercial freedom of speech based on offense.

Twins history began in 1961 when Washington Senators president Calvin Griffith made the historic decision to move his family’s team to the Midwest, settling on the Minneapolis/St. Paul area in Minnesota. The new team was named after the state’s famous Twin Cities and began their inaugual season with a talented roster featuring Harmon Killebrew, Bob Allison, Camilo Pascual, and Jim Lemon. Homegrown talents Jim Kaat, Zoilo Versalles, Jimmie Hall, and Tony Oliva combined with the Twins already potent nucleus to make the team a force to be reckoned with in the 1960s.

Nicholson* Introduction There seems to be a never ending debate over whether the use of the Indian as a team mascot is or is not racist, derogatory, offensive, and/or vulgar (or, as seen by some, all of the aforementioned). What some people view as a harmless representation of a team, others view as a mockery of American Indian culture. Supporters of teams that define themselves by the Indian mascot claim that its use is an honorable one. Opponents argue that the mascot fosters disparagement and insensitivity for a culture that plays an important part of American history. The hostility is mainly channeled to the five professional sports teams that, despite harsh public outcry, continue to be represented by American Indian names and symbols: the Atlanta Braves, Chicago Blackhawks, Cleveland Indians, Kansas City Chiefs, and Washington Redskins.
