Eddie, when I was young, I would spend hours reading the sports pages and memorizing books full of worthless, mind numbing stats. I wanted to fit in.
Then one day, I was kicked in the balls when I had to earn a living & care for others.
Frank Howard's lifetime batting average went by the wayside.
Don't get me wrong, it's still fun to gather with friends & occasionally get tipsy or place an small wager on what round an incontinent 45yr. old fighter will piss his pants, but in the major scope of things...
