Oct 2022

this week. We moved from Phila in 1984 and I swore I watched the World Series in 1980. I remember this since I had gone to college in NYC that year and saw it it the student lounge. I do not follow sports at all and only care if the Phila teams are in the finals so it is very rare that I watch sports at all but I am a loyal Philadelphian. I remembered the names of Garry Maddox, Greg Luzinski, Steve Carlton and Mike Schmidt when I looked it up so I could tell my mom that it was 1980 and not 1982. I also remember Pete Rose being a schmuck.
