On July 16th, 1996 The New York Mets roughed up the Philadelphia Phillies by a score of 7 to 5. One player who contributed to this win was a rookie by the name of Paul Wilson, who just came off six weeks of rest for his right shoulder. Although it was the return of Paul Wilson, there was another Met that over shadowed Wilson, and this guy was Jerry DiPolo. Mr. DiPolo came into the game during the fifth inning with runners on second and third and no outs. Outstandingly enough, he walked off that mound not conceding one run to the Phillies, which gave the crowd something to cheer about and he picked up the win, in just one inning that he pitched. Especially with the weather being as bad as it was with rain, which is a baseball player’s worst nightmare while playing. He needed to take other precautions while pitching. New York moved only 6 games back of the Wild Card leader and DiPolo’s E.R.A was reduced to a 4.06. With this win it gave the Mets players a positive look for winning the series after what they had accomplished in this game and taking a 1-0 series lead even though it is just the regular season.

A first half half hat-trick by Joe Burgess set up a 34-10 victory for the Bears over Wyong Roos at Morrie Breen Oval. Both teams had eight wins a piece heading into this round and a victory today was important for their semi final aspirations. It was Wyong who would take the early lead with a successful Tyler Cornish penalty kick. That goal would be the only joy Roos fans would have as the Bears stuck their claws in.

To start there have been many famous “moments” at Wrigley such as: Ernie Banks’ 500th home run (1970), Kerry Wood 20 strikeout game, Sammy Sosa's 60th homerun in 1998, 1999, and 2001, and Greg Maddux’s 3000th career strikeouts. Another well known famous moment that happened at WRigley was Babe Ruth’s “called shot” during the 1932 world series. Ruth pointed to centerfield suggesting where the next ball would go and Ruth hit a home run there. It is debated whether Ruth was pointing at the pitcher or gesturing to the Cubs bench but that moment has not been forgetted.

This quote, nestled between over 30 minutes of footage divided into three separate vlogs chronicling his travels in Japan, is a clear display of how Paul sees Japanese culture--and how it led him to make the worst decision of his career.

In the E.O Wilson article, he states that “no single set of moral standards can be applied to all human populations, let alone all sex-age classes within each population,” which I agree that not all morals can be applied to everyone. People who live in the north would not behave the same as those who live in the south, for example, based off of morality. Wilson makes good claims about how the evolution of humans and the way they behave is all based on the hypothalamus and limbic system in our brains. I believe biologist studying morality is better than philosophers, because of their studies into the human brain. A biologist can study the reasons why we choose the decisions we make based off of our ecosystem, and even our genetics.
