BigSix - got a chance to catch up a bit on the glorious thread last night for the first time in a long, long, long time. The "Taps" piece on the passing of The Colonel naturally hit home.

And I'll confess to getting a little misty-eyed reading Pat's letter to his old pal Roy Hitt explaining what was going through his mind on that last day in Fenway Park as Pat went out the only way he could have - a champion.
Keep up to good work, BigSix.
