I guess asking what if is just something which comes with being an old man. Yeats:

Things said or done long years ago,
Or things I did not do or say
But thought that I might say or do,
Weigh me down, and not a day
But something is recalled,
My conscience or my vanity appalled.

Anybody quoting Yeats on a sports message board is ok in my book.

On World Poetry Day, no less.





I will note here that I have long been a poet of some local renown and one of my offerings was of sufficient quality to appear in a national publication. At the behest of my wife I will not provide more details because that work has my name attached to it. I have written many hundreds of poems through the years and have yet to make a dime on any of them, but they have brought joy to Mrs. Gambit and that is sufficient reward.

That's awesome. Remember that Coach was a Literature major.
