Shawn, Don't feel bad times have changed some for me too. like ......
------ Cards went from 2 or 3 sets by 1 manufacture BUT in 7 series to all cards at same time, and back to 2 series, a lot of sets and many manufacturers to a few lesser manufactures and even more sets. in 1967 there were about 1,500 cards in the major releases. Today a major Star could have that in all the major releases added together alone.
------ The designated hitter in the American League started 45 years ago this spring.
------- Kansas City Royals opened a new Stadium. And they still use it today.

“It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops. Today, October 2, a Sunday of rain and broken branches and leaf-clogged drains and slick streets, it stopped and summer was gone.”
