When Hell's Pitcher's Mound Has No More Room.....

[oakenguy]

Dear Boston Globe,

When you begin an article with the line "Using a computer-controlled cadaver to simulate a pitcher on the mound, Boston researchers are..." do not expect me to read any more, because I am FREAKING OUT. WhatWHAT now??

The whole article is here: http://www.boston.com/lifestyle/health/articles/2011/04/12/researchers_tag_likely_culprit_as_cause_of_shoulder_injuries/ . At no point are the phrases "undead cyborg", "using technology last seen in Marvel Comics's 'Deathlok'", or "they called them mad, MAAAD!" used, sadly.

It says something that the first thing I thought when I read that was, "wow, that is a really HARSH way to describe Daisuke Matsuzaka's performance last night, MAN".
