Baseball is meant to be a contemplative game. They play music to draw young people to the game. If young people can't come to the game without music, then they should stay home.

I have no interest in non-fiction. I don't read it and don't watch it and don't write it, other than a little journalistic column.

Find something that thrills you, and when you finish reading it for enjoyment, read it again line by line, paragraph by paragraph to see what you liked about it.

I don't believe in the afterlife.

I knew how to read box scores and who the baseball heroes were before I had ever seen or even heard much of a game.

Read, read, read, read and then read some more.
