Why? Why should the bond between a people and their baseball team be so intense? Fenway Park is a part of it, offering a physical continuum to the bond, not only because Papi can stand in the same batter’s box as Teddy Ballgame, but also because a son might sit in the same wooden-slat seat as his father Picture Quote #1

In 2005, a man diagnosed with multiple myeloma asked me if he would be alive to watch his daughter graduate from high school in a few months. In 2009, bound to a wheelchair, he watched his daughter graduate from college. The wheelchair had nothing to do with his cancer. The man had fallen down while coaching his youngest son’s baseball team Picture Quote #1

Over time I learned that there are two very different satisfactions that you can have in your life. One is the satisfaction of becoming skilled at something.

I was on the high school track team, believe it or not, and played baseball, poorly but passionately Picture Quote #1

The fact is, when I was 15 and a sophomore at high school, I played on the varsity baseball team for the college Picture Quote #1

I was really short in high school. I was stuck on the bench in the baseball team, so I just thought I’d try out theater, and that was the last time I did sports Picture Quote #1

I played team sport as a kid and loved it. I played basketball and football throughout high school into college in the intramurals and I loved it. There was nothing like a team Picture Quote #1

The young Obama’s lack of playing time on the high school basketball team was due more to his ability than the coach’s preference for white players Picture Quote #1

The truth of basketball is done in competition and fundamentals and team, but there’s a lot of other junk that goes around the game Picture Quote #1

Magic is crazy. He is that crazy wild guy on the basketball court that is very intense and very serious. He is the guy who lives and eats and breathes basketball.
