Back when you could actually relate to the athletes, and they played for the love of the game.....before Curt Flood ruined it all.
Dad and I never missed Home Run Derby or Saturday Night Boxing.
Of course I’d always miss the ‘knock-out’ punch or Mickey’s winning 400’ home run due to having to hold the rabbit ears up over my head while standing on one foot with 50’ of tin foil wrapped around my body.
Still cherish the memories and will forever.
