Max...was the Marquis de Sade in the Marat/Sade, but don't tell the other forum members.
On the other hand, at 12, I gave up card collecting (when Julio Gotay is your favorite card, where can you go but down?) to concentrate on my baseball career. As is self-evident, thing perhaps would have turned out differently if I'd followed my coaches advice and opened my eyes when I batted.
I was a heavy hitting (.235 or so, no power, lots of walks, lots of Ks) star on a 1-19 team. I decided to grow 1/2 foot and play basketball the next year. However, I didn't abandon Fred Lieb and Harold Seymour.
