Grow up Tod. Please grow up. I b&m about all that’s wrong in sports,media,and politics. If I don’t mention somebody..and that’s 99% of the world, its because I have no complaints.
And when you say “Only a game”..man,go back to read North Dallas Forty where the quote first was uttered by a player “When we say its a business,the owners say its just a game,when we say its just a game,the owners say its a business”..And I say a multibillion dollar industry.

And Joe?-CesspedA’s?,2-4 2 ribby’s. You don’t rest him vs the Angels. How many April games Joe did the dos Willys-MAYS and McCovey miss vs the Dodgers? Hmm?
