I'll tell you who: dusky Puerto Ricans and Latin Americans And the Nippers, who God Himself is working so very hard these days to purge from His creation If I was you, I don't think this is the time to go overboard and get an imported Mizuno Pro GMP63 Fielder's Glove for each of your sons.

It has been my experience that the only reason that the Nippers, Puerto Ricans and Latin Americans (especially Cuba) play baseball is because they are trying to emulate true Americans and looking for an "easy in" to become something they could never become in their home country. Namely: successful.
My wife has actually made the boys their first gloves. She is good with leather crafting and I think her Christian touch (cross stitching) really adds to their appearance.

Unfortunately this is one of the Sindanavian's heathen recreations, one that many gamble on, and something I cannot allow my boys to adhere to.

Yes, "kubb" as it is called amongst the pagans, is something that I will not let my boys participate in. Many a time they have come to me and said, "Daddy, we've been invited to a summer lawn party at our friends' and we are going to play kubb and drink saft!", and I've been forced to keep them focused on their KJV studies rather than allow them to participate in such things. They'll thank me for it later.
