My heart breaks when I ponder where they are running to now. How will this end? How will this emotionally affect two innocent children? What lessons are we teaching...
...Ruth's accomplishments are diminished by one brutal fact: he didn't play against black athletes. One-tenth of the population, and surely a far larger proportion of those motivated to succeed in athletics, never had a chance to test Ruth.
