Question: Before everybody knew everything, were there special moments!?
*****
THE THINGS I HAVE SEEN
FROM THE CHEAP SEATS
Crack!
A blistering line drive to left!.
Bo Jackson, eating sunflower seeds,
Notices the missile
heading in his direction!.
…As the ball passes him,
he turns right and follows, in pursuit!.
He accelerates until he outruns
the baseball, catching it from behind!.

I didn't see Don Larsen
pitch the perfect game
but I saw a player named Jack
bring a 71 year old man
back to the place where
he had seen the perfect game!.
I watched an All Star Game
and saw that old man give up 27
home runs on 37 pitches
!.!.!.that same man had tossed balls
to our youth for over 50 years
It was the Natural
and an old man
who loved the game
who was more obscure
than Don Larsen!.
I never saw anything more perfect!.

TD, Everyone had heroes!. Baseball of yesterday is never going to be baseball of today!.
Poets of yesterday are not poets of today!. I love Longfellow, Whitman, Poe, Barrett-Browning and the list goes on!. But I also like some of the new stuff!.
The difference between poetry and baseball!. Poetry is done for the love of the art!. Baseball used to be poetry, but now it is just business!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
