Quote of the Day

January 10, 2020

It's Baseball, Not Football

January 10, 2020/ Jon Winokur

It’s baseball, not football—a long season, slumps, errors, humiliations, bad feelings, bad weather, jet lag, all that stuff, and you just grind it out. You believe that in the end, the numbers (whatever they would be in our business) will show that except for that O-for-31 in May, you had a pretty good season.
