JUST THINKING

* The Yankees won their 27th World Series . I was a baseball fan until age 15 . The Yanks won the pennant 13 of those years. The Bronx Bombers won the Series 8 times during that run. The Yankees winning was all we knew.
I became interested in other sports in 1965 & the Yanks stopped winning. As a fan I just drifted away & never came back. But I can still tell you the starting line-up & remember going to see the Yankees - White Sox in 1961.
Broke my heart when Maz hit that home run for the Pirates to win the 1960 World Series. They fired my hero Casey Stengal after the game.

* The World is much smaller now. Communications & Technology have brought things much closer. The Medina I grew up in does not exist anymore. I grew up pretty much in isolation. I was not much trouble because I didn't have many options. Things that happened far away were just that ; far away. Not like today ,where everything happens right outside your door.
Your behavior is determined a large part by your options. Parents ,that thought is a kick in the Coconut Grove.

* TSSAA has really messed up the play-offs. No one knows who is playing who including the Bozos at the TSSAA office.
People are not going to be interested in something they can't understand . TSSAA needs to have 3 public school classes & 2 private school classes. Knock the play-off bracket back to 3 games.
Too many champions & too many games have destroyed the system. We will never see these changes because TSSAA is all about the Dollars.
