    Someone care to explain Purples connection with me?
    First syllable of each word is baseball equipment 

    Again... Explain it to me.  This was one of the more far fetched "connections" I have seen.

    I will look for more obtuse connections in the upcoming games.

    I still don't get it! It tells you what the connection is, and that is a real connection - how is it far fetched? It's simply challenging! 
    Attempting to use baseball to make those words connected is utter madness.  
    Ball
    cap
    base
    (can’t remember the 4th). 

    All baseball words. Not sure why it’s so maddening. 
    Batmobile and baseball do not comprehend to me.  I did not do enough psychedelics apparently to get me there...

    The fist half of the word was something that is used in baseball.

    BAT-Mobile
    BASE-Ball

    No shit.  The word Batmobile in itself had me not thinking baseball.

    Capstone was not on my mind for cap.  I was looking at a keystone or higher learning facility...
    Well if you understand that then what’s the issue? 
    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer
