Hey, guys.
I think a rule of thumb of storytelling is having a good story to tell.

Imagine if the Blue Jays sent Bo Bichette to a small Great Lakes town to rehab his knee in Sept/Oct.
That’s what the Reds did with defending NL batting champ Chick Hafey in 1932.

Wayne’s education, for all intents and purposes, began to grind to a halt when he moved from Brantford to Toronto to play Jr B at 13, which doesn’t tend to give one a very broad perspective. Case in point: the Forum riot gave rise to the Quiet Revolution, a landmark event in PQ’s history.

You can pin the Yankees loss to the Cards in the final game of the 1926 Series. After being walked for the 4th time, Ruth took off for 2nd. But at 31 and not known for his training habits, Ruth had slowed considerably, and was easily thrown out at 2nd.

For those not alive in 1987, the whole last week for the Blue Jays was as gut-wrenching as last night. They lost their last 7 to lose the pennant. Every day, I woke up thinking, “they’ll win tonight.”
And they didn’t. That was torturous.
