Joel,

Thank you for posting such a wonderful article. It's never too late to take a another stab at the game...so long as you can swing a little, there's hope.

Cheers,
Kris

Joel Z. -

Thanks for the link to this wonderful essay.

I read Jane Leavy's biography of Mickey Mantle, which was published a year or so ago. Highly recommended to those of a certain age who grew up a Yankee fan.

Thought I'd bump this link one time to put it front/center for those who might have missed it the other day...very poignant stuff!

That's a lovely and loving story.   I loved her line, "Oh my god, I've got my father's ass!"

Near the end of his life, my dad played with me in a scramble.  He couldn't hit full shots anymore but he holed three or four birdie putts.   He couldn't have been any happier if he'd played like the 5-handicapper he used to be!
