About Me

There is one all-time greatest moment in the history of sports, and it happened in the 1932 World Series. The story goes that in the bottom of the ninth inning with two outs, a full count and the tying run on base, Babe Ruth raised his arm and pointed to the center field bleachers. No one believed it, because nobody had ever done it before. But The Babe was calling his shot. On the next pitch, the Great Bambino hit a towering home run. And even although he'd been a hero before that, that's pretty much how he became a legend.

I am weak, and being weak, I stand low

Sometimes people say things that just seem to slap the floor like an ape on a rampage. And sometimes it even startles you so bad that the expression on your face just seems to fall off. When I was a...
