I promise this will be my last post about the World series today...

Did anyone else find it hilarious that David Wells left the game w/back spasms after the first inning less than 24 hours after he said this:

"I'll leave the working out and conditioning to those guys, forever. They can write a book or do videos. They can make money on that, on how to last 20 years in the big leagues by conditioning. I'll write the one, 'How Not To Work Out.' We'll weigh the both of them."

Now, I'm not denying that he's a great pitcher and has done very well without the conditioning. But when you get paid so much to just do one thing and the success of that one thing is directly effected by your health... wouldn't you take that more seriously? And if you had made an significant investment in this guy, wouldn't you insist he follow a good conditioning program to lessen the risk that he would have to exit Game 5 of the World Series w/back spasms after one perfect inning? Just asking.
