The sociological tide may indeed be turning. Many will understand, get educated, and become allies. Some folks will come “kicking-and-screaming”, but ultimately acquiesce. Others—THANKFULLY—will never comprehend. So be it.
Scott Colom will defeat Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith in a major upset to become the first Democrat that voters in deep-red Mississippi have elected to the chamber in more than four decades, CNN projects. https://t.co/7He7iU15yD
"The finest stretch of pitching in baseball history began on June 6, 1968 when Bob Gibson shut out Houston on three hits to even his record at 5-5.
From that night until August, Bob Gibson allowed three runs in 102 innings.
THREE runs!
In TWO months!
And one of the runs scored on a wild pitch. "They called it a wild pitch," Bob Gibson corrects believing it should have been a passed ball and an unearned run.
From the end of May to Aug. 23, Bob Gibson won 15 consecutive games and threw 10 shutouts.
At one point he was 15-5 with a 0.94 ERA.
When he shut out Philadelphia for 10 innings Sept. 2 to win his 20th game, he lowered his ERA to 0.99.
Bob Gibson started 34 games and completed 28 of them.
No team ever drove him off the mound.
The only time he left a game was for a pinch hitter.
Had Bob Gibson been given just a bit better support, he might have come close to 30 victories.
As it was, the Cardinals scored only 12 runs in his nine losses and just four in his first five.
He also was the victim of Gaylord Perry’s no-hitter."

@BBallNowandThen Beautiful image, unfortunately it is A.I. generated or altered.
The Milwaukee numerals on the road jerseys were not red until the 1973-74 season. By then, Chamberlain (background) was no longer swatting shots around at the LA Forum. He was coaching in the ABA with San Diego.
