Happy Tom Seaver Day

The Franchise was born today in 1944.

Amazingly, my efforts to make this a national holiday are not yet successful. And I had to spend much of the day in a Board of Education work session.

But I was able to wear an appropriate baseball tie to commemorate the occasion.

So go forward and think glorious thoughts, and hoist a glass of nice wine -- or Diet Coke if you are covering school board meetings -- to salute the best player ever from our team.
