I was at the 1981 All star game in Cleveland. So that covers a lot. We got there and watched batting practice. Reggie Jackson was shagging balls in the outfield. The Cleveland fans were giving him grief. Then he caught one, and the fans were begging him for the ball. He walks over to the stands and points at a fan, acts like he’s going to give it to him, then shakes his head no and throws it back to the infield with a big smile on his face. Funniest thing I ever saw. Then he really heard it from the fans.

Best player Pujols

Best pitcher Greg Maddux

Desiderata

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Strive to be happy.
