Maestro - I remember reading in 'Son of Ball Four' Jim Bouton explaining to his wife why he gave up a 6-figure broadcasting salary to attempt a baseball comeback @ the age of 40. Something like, 'Honey, when you're dead, you're dead for a long time.'
Maybe the real lesson is 'Baseball really IS Life.'
