Yes, of course. And I’m old enough to remember when people said only the best they could muster when someone died, and waited with the other truths for maybe ten minutes.

100 years ago (actually, exactly 50), when a young, long-haired Geraldo got in goal against new New York Cosmo, Pele, this then-young goaltender thought he was pretty cool. I guess we’ve both grown up a lot (and in different ways) since then.
