On the mound our Mayor Donnie Andersen is known as a clutch pitcher and it was good to see him come through like that in this week’s council meeting.
He disarmed the heavy hitters who still seem so intent on doing the stupidest thing in Wendover since voting to build that monstrous monument to government by simply presenting the facts.
The “emergency” some Wendover residents would be facing if Wendover Gas went out of business would be no emergency at all.
He had a whole list of companies ready if not eager to make a few extra dollars by getting more customers.
Long live the profit motive, Long live common sense government.
Our mayor may not be the most eloquent politician around but he throws straight, true and this time a struck out the side.
We have been going to little league games in Wendover since our daughter played T-Ball 24 years ago.
Never have we’ve seen the disgraceful behavior we saw Tuesday night.
After we left the fracas we told our son there are only two reasons why a man over 25 should resort to violence:
1) to defend his family
2) to defend his country
Under 25 we can understand how testosterone can cloud a man’s judgement.
But for goodness sake it was a LITTLE LEAGUE game.
While we like and admire both coaches involved we agree with the punishments.
