Poll Question!!

More likely: A) Pedro Martinez pitches more than 10 games in year 4 of his new contract OR B) The pipedream that is the US missile defense shield actually becomes operational in our lifetime. NEITHER is not an acceptable answer.

Full disclosure, my dad worked on "star wars" in the 80s and said that every single defense contractor in the country knew it was a physically impossible undertaking. Things like friction and aerodynamics make the whole idea about as plausible as shooting down a balloon floating above Harlem using a sniper rifle attached to a rocking Staten Island Ferry.
