Baseball in the Park

Two boys are playing baseball in a NY Central Park when one of them is attacked by a rottweiler. Thinking quickly, his friend rips a plank of wood from a fence, forces it into the dog's collar and twists it, breaking the dog's neck.

All the while, a newspaper reporter who was taking a stroll through the park is watching. He rushes over, introduces himself and takes out his pad and pencil to start his story for the next edition.

He writes, "Yankee fan saves friend from vicious animal."

The boy interrupts: "But I'm not a Yankee fan."

The reporter starts again: "Mets fan saves friend from horrific attack."

The boy interrupts again: "I'm not a Mets fan either."

The reporter asks: "Who do you support, then?"

"Red Sox," replies the boy.

So the reporter starts again: "Boston bas***d kills family pet"
