Nothing's more American than an anime girl in a flag bikini Hooray! The spirit of McCarthyism is alive and well in Hastings, Nebraska, where for the first time in ages, the local school district has asked all its teachers to comply with a 1951 state law requiring all teachers to sign a loyalty oath.
“'Roderick Spode is the founder and head of the Saviours of Britain, a Fascist organization better known as the Black Shorts. His general idea, if he doesn’t get knocked on the head with a bottle in one of the frequent brawls in which he and his followers indulge, is to make himself a Dictator.’
‘Well, I’m blowed!’ I was astounded at my keenness of perception. The moment I had set eyes on Spode, if you remember, I had said to myself ‘What ho! A Dictator!’ and a Dictator he had proved to be. I couldn’t have made a better shot, if I had been one of those detectives who see a chap walking along the street and deduce that he is a retired manufacturer of poppet valves named Robinson with rheumatism in one arm, living at Clapham. ‘Well, I’m dashed! I thought he was something of that sort. That chin…Those eyes…And, for the matter of that, that moustache. By the way, when you say “shorts”, you mean “shirts”, of course.’
‘No. By the time Spode formed his association, there were no shirts left. He and his adherents wear black shorts.’
Richard Stands drove the bus in Olive, the Other Reindeer, a fun Xmas cartoon starring and produced by Drew Barrymore. You and Mrs. Blobfish should see it.
Well, they could compromise on the size - like when Australia plays Ireland at "International Rules Football", an insane mix between Gaelic and Australian Rules.
More like Wodehouse's Roderick Spode...

‘Footer bags, you mean?’
‘Yes.’
‘How perfectly foul.”

It's just a note in their Permanent Records.
Why don't the winners of the World Series have to play off with the Japanese champions, which would actually make it a "World" Series?
"an indissoluble nation of many sovereign states" - you mean this oath rejects Texas' right to secession? FASCIST TRANNY!!!

Who's version? Zierke's? Texas style? 1960s textbooks (all they can afford with those Commie teachers needing to be paid)?
Going to a Catholic school and reciting the Pledge. Too bad it seemed normal. I might have learned about cognitive dissonance at an earlier age.

The Japanese have smaller bats and balls. ;-)
The post season schedule was released today. The WS could leak into November. I don't think anyone wants to play baseball 'till New Years Day.
