Case Study: Timmy and Tommy.

Naturally, many American parents today introduce their little boys to baseball because baseball is a sport of success. It exercises the mind and the body alike. So a recent case study has been concluded to further examine this theory.

Does playing baseball at a young age directly affect the level of success one achieves later on in life?

Timmy and Tommy grew up on the same street together. The following were the constants:

1. Environment of the two boys. (neighborhood, school, etc.)
2. The age of the two boys. (They are 3 months apart, and they stay 3 months apart as time passes.)
3. The class status of the two boys. (upper/middle/the liking)
4. The sex of the two boys. (We had them sign a contract at the age of 5 that states they are not to have a sex change while the study is being conducted.)
5. Their diets (strictly pescetarian).

The variable being that Tommy is a sissy boy and doesn't like baseball, whereas Timmy only likes sports (and beer, as we later find).







Tommy insisted on having that last photo taken. Timmy has resented Tommy ever since.



This is when they made the front page of the local enquirer



This is when they took a field trip to Saudi Arabia to play baseball with the Saudi kids.



Timmy insisted on doing this after every game to make up for the sissy-ass photos Tommy made Timmy get when they were younger.



This is them 50 years later, thus concluding the study. Look how successful they are! So even though they have two different personalities, they both found equal success, and it was probably entirely due to having played baseball since a young age.
