[BAN-ONE]

I had two groups of heroes as a kid:
One group was the Gemini and Apollo astronauts.
The other group was my favorite MLB players, Gibby in particular.

I can remember standing in front of the mirror before a Little League game. I wanted to mimic the famous Bob Gibson stare/frown so I would look just like him on the mound.

Dang FRiend, I could've written that exact post.

Those were the days, my friend . . .

RIP, Mr. Gibson .. you were in my Hall of Fame long before MLB said so.
