“And millions of baby-boomers are hearing baseball cards in their bicycle spokes thinking - oh crap.”

Same thing crossed my mind. Back in the 50’s in NYC and in my pre-teens, we used to ‘Flip’ or ‘Scale’ cards against a wall. Those of you from the Bronx probably know what I mean. I had literally thousands of cards I won. Mom gave them away when I got married.

And as we got older, we used to pitch pennies, then nickels, dimes, etc.
