Points Leagues: Hebrew Nationals

Max Scherzer, Jordan Zimmermann, and Stephen Strasburg. If that doesn't sound like the guest list for Temple Beth Sholom's Rosh Hashanah bash, I don't know what does. Who will the Nationals sign next, Ryan Braun, Ike Davis or Ian Kinsler? How many Jews does it take to win a World Series? Now before anyone goes and gets offended, let me say that I myself am Jewish, or at least I was raised as such. Bar Mitzvah and all. And that means that it's kosher for me make Jewish jokes. It's kinda like how African-American rappers and comedians are allowed to say the word that shall not be said. Shockingly, however, none of Scherzer, Zimmermann, nor Strasburg light the menorah. Say what!?! It's true. You won't find any of those names in Adam Sandler's next rendition of the Hanukkah Song. But while I'm on the topic, allow me to say that Hebrew National hot dogs are, by far, the best hot dogs one can eat. Actually all kosher hot dogs are pretty damn delicious. Most importantly, they are all beef. No uncertainly about what you are actually eating. After all, they answer to a higher authority!
