I always think of the quote by Rogers Hornsby
"People ask me what I do in winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring."
Our lives are all collectively a little bit better when the sport is being played, even if we don't watch it as often as we used to!
