eddhead Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 As I get older, I find myself reflecting more and more on life's circumstances and priorities. This article, and the one that follows touched me to the point of tears. I hope you enjoy it. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/11/sports/f...ml?ref=football May 11, 2008 CHEERING SECTION Dying of Cancer, but Full of Life Lessons By VINCENT M.

eddhead Posted May 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 The subject of article number 2 is a boyhood hero. New York Yankee fans may remember Bobby Mercer as a star outfielder for the Yankees and the Giants in the 70's and 80's, and a current day broadcaster. Mercer is currently undergoing experimental treatment for brain cancer. His outlook and disposition are more than inspirational.. they challenge me to prioritize, to and to value every new day as a gift. To me this article, and the one that precedes it are life lessons on grace and dignity. Again, I hope you enjoy them. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/09/sports/b...agewanted=print May 9, 2008 TV SPORTS Murcer the Author Tells of His Life and New Yogiism By RICHARD SANDOMIR Bobby Murcer did not expect to write his autobiography so soon, but in 11 days, on his 62nd birthday, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
