"Lou Gehrig was the type of ball player to command respect, even if you weren’t his teammate.
To see his broad back and muscular arms as he spread himself at the plate was to give the impression of power as no other ball player I ever saw gave it.
I not only admired Lou but I was amazed by him.
I had read of course, how he had gone along for seasons in the shadow of Babe Ruth, but Ruth wasn’t with the Yankees when I first joined the club.
I thought all eyes would be on Gehrig, but found instead that the spotlight was on me, a rookie from the Coast.
Gehrig had played eight years without missing a ball game for the Yankees before I ever played professionally.
The fact that he was being taken for granted didn’t bother Gehrig a bit.
He was courteous, gracious and informative whenever the writers asked him anything, but he didn’t mind being left to himself.
Whatever Lou does in the future doesn't count.
He has had fourteen great seasons, and I mean great.
If I could have only ten of them, I'd be satisfied.
Here's a fellow who has lasted 'til he's thirty-six, and only this morning I was wondering and me twenty-four, how long I'll last.
Say, if I could go ten more years, 'til I'm thirty-four, I'd be glad to call it a career.
Lou Gehrig welcomed me with open arms, he made the transition very easy.
It was his will and desire and character that drove us to all those pennants.
You couldn't help but try to emulate the man.
I was proud to have him as a teammate.
He was the greatest hitter I ever saw.
He was my Hero too!"
Joe DiMaggio.

@poperespecter1 @Thamburckey It is called weaponized ambiguity. Say to the Faithful one thing repeatedly; say the opposite to the world to gain its favor. What is the ‘Synodal Way’ if not a surreptitious way to dilute church teachings to attract the approval of secular authorities?

[Daniel Hogan @DanH9709]

@StJohn6_53 @timotheeology Robert Prevost? This is a classic Bergoglian tactic. Have a study group reach a heretical conclusion; vaguely distance yourself from it; have a stupid synod codify it; ignore it when the Germans and Dutch put it into practice; anathematize anyone who points out it is heretical.

@NickSzabo4 @QuasLacrimas Indeed, SPQR is a wretched book whose primary (and only for all intents and purposes) theme is that there was nothing unique or particularly impressive about Roman civilization. She is a propagandist, not a classicist.

[Daniel Hogan @DanH9709]

@JeffSmithGolf I hope there is veracity to Smith’s take on LIV, but it seems like wishful thinking. Absent Star power (the big names largely will flee) LIV is a high overhead DP World Tour without a solid TV contract and diluted OWGR points. This is a dead end I’m afraid.

[Daniel Hogan @DanH9709]

@JeffSmithGolf Actually, this is a serious question. I believe that only 100 players are fully exempt. Each earned that designation. You can’t displace them arbitrarily to allow new entrants to play. LIV players shouldn’t be punished, but neither should existing players with earned status.

"June 13, 1948, was a special day in Yankees’ history, as the club celebrated the 25th Anniversary of Yankee Stadium.
Among the highlights was a reunion of the 1923 Yankees team – the first team to play in Yankee Stadium, and the first Yankee team to win the World Series.
Most importantly, the June 13, 1948 occasion featured “Babe Ruth Day” with a special ceremony during which the Yankees formally retired a dying Babe Ruth’s uniform #3 and sent it to Cooperstown.
During the ceremony, an emotional crowd of 49,641 fans sang ‘Auld Lang Syne’ to the Babe.
The historic day marked the great Bambino’s final appearance in a Yankees uniform and at Yankee Stadium.
Ruth passed away just two months later on August 16th.
"Babe Ruth Bows Out"
Art by Nathaniel Fein.
"All the photographers were in the front, and I wanted to see how Ruth looks from the back.
So I figured, well, number three is out.
The Babe bows out…”
Nat Fein.
This image won the 1949 Pulitzer Prize for Photography.
Ty Cobb, now 60 years old, led off the game in the first inning.
Cobb turned to catcher Wally Schang and said:
"Would you mind backing up a bit?
I’m an old man now, and I can barely hold on to this bat.
I am worried I will hit you with it."
Schang respectfully obliged, only for Cobb to lay down a bunt and attempt to beat it out for a hit.
Cobb missed by only a step.
After the game, Ty Cobb and Babe Ruth were photographed together for the last time.
"Whether from pain or medication or emotion, Ruth’s eyes were wet when Cobb laid his hand on Ruth’s right shoulder.
The moisture caught the flash of the camera."

@IrishGolferMag Perhaps I need to reevaluate my unconscious dislike of Koepka.
