A man was sitting in a psychiatrist’s office. He was complaining about an obsession that was ruining his life. 

“It’s baseball, Doctor,” he said. “Please help me. Baseball is destroying me. I can’t even get away from it in my sleep. As soon as I close my eyes, I’m out there chasing a fly ball or running around the bases. When I wake up, I’m more tired than I was when I went to bed. What am I going to do? 

The psychiatrist sat back and folded her hands. “First of all,” she said, “you have to make a conscious effort not to dream about baseball. For example, when you close your eyes, try to imagine that you’re at a party at which someone is about to give you several million dollars.” 

“Are you crazy, Doctor?” the patient shouted. “I’ll miss my turn at bat!” 

Sports. Some people can’t live…
