I've never been more than mildly interested

Its similar to the Brjtish Monarchy, except they dont do newsworthy things on a 4 year schedule. But  every so often for as long as  I remember,  people love it or hate and the people who hate it say it should be abolished. But it never is. So I just keep quiet and let those  who enjoy it enjoy it.

Just by chance I came across this fellow while researching someone in the 100 years ago thread.

Sports equipment back then was so rudimentary...  Coming back from injuries harder (if not impossible) and corporate sponsorships were probably miniscule if anything.

I wonder if Clarence thought... 84 years after I die, some guy in Southern California will respond to an article about me... 

Nah, he probably had a different woman every night in awe of his athleticism and stamina. He drank up a storm and left his conquests sore for weeks.  Never a thought past the tip of his...
