Asterisk
Gender | Male |
---|---|
Location | Boulder, CO, United States |
Introduction | Used to be in the piano club of CrackoDawn, Newton MA. Grew up in NYC as a Yankees fan. Read Mickey Mantle's baseball book, Quality of Courage, a ripoff of JFK's Profiles in Courage. Mantle had one article on Roger Maris, how the baseball commissioner should not have assigned an asterisk to Maris' homerun record. When I wanted an Internet handle for logging into sports blogs, Asterisk seemed perfect, since so many sports achievements need some qualification. Top sports moment: on the Champs Elysee when Lemond beat Fignon. Where I was, he had regained 44 of 50 seconds on the way to the Arc and was 2 seconds ahead on the way back, winning by 8. |
