But could it somehow be a reference to the old practice of calling a baseball players bums? Like the Brooklyn Dodgers.

I find it so hard to believe any editor approved "One Useful Bum"

I suppose none of the people they're offending are on the internet

It's a stupid headline

Woops. Should read "calling baseball players bums"

I think it's more a play on the line "he's a useless bum".

MLB.com used Mad-man for their pun right after the game ended.
Eyebrows - October 31, 2010
Way ahead of 'em

If the Giants win tonight, someone's writing Clinch-ecum.
