St. Peter and Satan were having an argument one day about baseball. With a suspicious grin, Satan proposed a game (to be played on neutral grounds) between a select team from heaven and a hand-picked team from his “hometown” turf.
“Very well,” the gatekeeper of the Celestial City agreed. “But you realize, I hope, that we have all the good players, and the best coaches too.”
“I know,” said Satan calmly, “but we have all the umpires!”
