Enough with the Ceremonies

I think that Robert Clemente is a great example of what an athlete should be A great ballplayer and a great humanitarian, giving his life to that cause. I do not think, however, that Roberto Clemente would appreciate a ten-minute ceremony in the middle of the fifth inning recognizing his life thirty-plus years after he passed....

Fox loves these ceremonies; I guess they drive ratings. However, games that are already starting late enough in the evening that even regular baseball fans have trouble staying up to watch their conclusions do not need constant ceremonial interruption.
