    Dammit Nasher.

    Seems every other day a player from my wall of 1964 Topps cards falls.

    I know, I Know, it's that time in our lives.

    But it hurts every time I see it.

    I was 10. These guys were my idols. I loved the game more than anything.

    Played the game or pitched to whoever would catch me every day I could.

    Conjures up memories of that great lyric from Simon and Garfunkel's epic 'My Little Town'
    "Nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town"

    My two cents, not for nothing but nobody, and I mean nobody did two part harmony better than S & G
    My Little Town is as close to a perfect song as it gets.
    Perfect harmony, perfect lyrics, perfect chord structure...
    Perfect.
