Whoa, easy. I was just making a generalization about the intellect of baseball players. Let's just say they're one dimensional.

Fair enough. I overreacted. I just don’t think it’s fair to extrapolate play on the field to someone’s general intelligence.

It's a Carl Lewis like leap to go from ADHD to retarded.

I'm old so I'll go with Bob Beamon.     :)

That was aided by the thin air of Mexico City. So they say.

Better than the Air and Space Museum on the mall and much less crowded.

Never been to the one at Dulles, but I've heard the same thing.  The one on the Mall has always been one of my favorites along with the American History Museum.

It wasn’t the ADHD. It was the stupid and Morse comment. Although diagnosing someone with ADHD because they make some stupid baserunning plays is kinda unfair too.

They all have their charms.  Holocaust is also really well done.  Even the Spy Museum is worth it if you can go when it isn't packed.

I hear the Newseum is failing financially, go now if you wanted to before it's gone.

As for Morse, I said he wasn't bright because I sat next to him for lunch for two hours.

Someone will rescue the museum, not to worry. And a new spy museum is opening next year, I think.

The whole Smithsonian experience is worth a visit.    I've been in town almost 50 years and I'm always visitin' one of the museums.    I like the late afternoon ballgames.    Gives me a chance to pick one out before I hit the Park.    I've also been known to hit the Smithsonian before the Bullpen for night games.    :)

 Newseum and spy museum are both fun.

If you are into airplane museums make the pilgrimage to wright-Patterson in Dayton.
