Old Time photograph that I wish were true today. One can lose all sense of anticipation and excitement if the season is too long. Baseball is now like hockey, over 9 months. I remember when the only thing you get in February was Street and Smith's Baseball Yearbook. And the November Classic was played in October. I liked that.

Ernie Banks was already on the downside of a wonderful career when I became familiar with him, but he was still good for the long ball and the smiling countenance. There are people like Ernie who are blessed because they bless us. I always had the feeling he didn't really want to play two except that we wanted to watch him play two and he was thrilled to oblige.

“I don’t think people understand how Covid affects older Americans,” Mr. Caretti said with frustration. “In 2020, there was this all-in-this-together vibe, and it’s been annihilated. People just need to care about other people, man. That’s my soapbox.”

---From an article by Paula Span, who covers old age for the NYT, which currently has 2646 comments, the majority criticizing the American public – and public officials – for acting as if the pandemic is “over.”
Classic wishful thinking, at a lethal level.
