Bad Day for Baseball

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

How was it a bad day for baseball? The man was 92 years old.
The bad day for baseball was many, many years ago.....when he retired.

Not really, homer, Stan stayed around after his retirement. Have you read nothing regarding his post-retirement life?

I agree with Stinger and the many, many people who do so, also.

Sad day for baseball, indeed.
