. . . KIDDIE LEAGUE moved into some sort of wit-less protection program, and renamed from "Chester" to "Reggie." As G. Stein famously observed, "A rotund stinker by any other name smells just as odoriferous." Chester/Reggie spends his time during THE BIRD WHO CAME TO DINNER methodically destroying his toys, confident in his belief that his mummy dearest will keep buying him more victims to stretch, whack and saw. During KIDDIE LEAGUE, Chester/Reggie's granny proved herself to be a poor sport, initiating a riot in the stands. Chester/Reggie's mom-stir is equally ill-bred, incapable of exercising the basic discipline necessary to squelch a future Public Enemy Number One Menace to Society. Meaning that Chester/Reggie already is at least a third generation nuisance.
