    Museum-worthy photo. Not to be confused with our mausoleum-worthy business.

    That makes me wish I'd been around back then or even earlier. Although I love modern medicine, the internet and indoor toilets, I've always thought it would have been cool to be around back in the days when the writers traveled on trains with the teams.

    You would have hated a lot of those guys.

    I'm probably more in tune with those geezers than most people today.

    When I got hip.

    Birks have never been my "dress" attire - they're my lounging shoes.
    I save the serious kicks for bidness!

    Those are two-tones, not spats, which wrap completely around the shoe.

    Carry on.

    My understanding is that both LA papers rarely travel with the NHL franchises.

    Photo is from Sept. 1962 at Yankee Stadium. I think I can identify a few of those guys.

    And no, I'm not one of them ... at that point, that photo was my dream.

    I tend to agree with you. Although dying of polio by age 40 would have sucked.
