The Commissioner sat at his desk, head down and in his hands as he looked at the daily game reports his secretary had just delivered.
She stood in front of the desk, seeming to tower over her boss as she gently scolded him: "You knew this could happen. You knew yourself, and others warned you as well."
"Joanie, I just don't need that right now."
"Yes, you do need to hear it. It's not tough to figure out that this could happen with such small divisions."
"I know, I know. I knew a team could drop to .500 and still lead their division. But how in HELL do they lose 15 out of 16, and not ONE team in their division can catch up? NOT ONE!"
"You're the one who said that this kind of thing would even out, that it would fix itself by the end of the season. It's just July. There's time."
"I don't know. Maybe it was ALL a mistake."
"Now, just stop that. Will you feel better if I call you Damon?"
"Not now, Joanie. Not ... um, yeah, that would help."
