Hey Mr Diaz you coached my baseball team with Mr Mancuso Phillys Dad. Till this day I tell my kids it ain't over till it's over. You manned us up in a good way, thank you for being a great role model. I played Hockey and I was Left wing Louie Right wing and Richie Center...those were the days. Now I understand the Sunglasses Hat and beard and covert baseball practice locations behind John Bowne lol, Mooney

yeah that is one of the weirdest thing these days, walking outside, not a kid to be seen, nobody's playing outside. Even growing up in the 80's, in the city, there were literally gangs of kids playing outside, either riding bikes, or playing hockey or baseball on the street. And in the afternoon in the summer, people used to hang outside on their balcony or on the front lawn, or the steps, and people knew each other, you knew who were the drunks, who beat their wives, who was crazy, who was a pervert and stay away from that house! who were the good guys etc.. these days i couldn't even tell you who lives next door. At least i can say im lucky enough to have experienced a fun childhood. WTF do kids do these days? sit at home on their tablet? watching tiktok?
