Jaybird in reply to Mike Schilling on Series! Recap of World Series of the 1920s
Once upon a time I did the opposite — was in Florida in July and went out to play a round. At the first tee was a big sign that said, “No walking. All players must have a motorized cart.” I thought it was silly. I was young-ish, in good shape, had been living at altitude. I took the cart and by the fifth tee I understood why. I could have finished, but by somewhere on the back nine they would have had to have a place to stack the Yankees’ bodies.Report
Huh. “Eskimo” is a recent spelling, I guess.Report
