After watching 60 Minutes, you realize Trump has to go, MAGA has to go, election deniers, they all need to go away and let the country heal. This is what happens when you allow ignorance to have any semblance of power.

Willie Mays is 91. Greatest ballplayer I ever saw play. He could have played in Pittsburgh with Clemente. Piper Davis, manager of the Birmingham Black Barons, wanted to sell Mays to the Pirates for $2400. The Pirates turned it down. They wanted him to pitch.

People you have to know this. When Clemente's plane crashed, Manny Sanguillen swam out to the spot, in 150 feet of water, no scuba gear, everyday, searching for his friends body. Now that's a real man and true friend. When you see him at PNC, show him love.
