I find it interesting that certain former (Vess?) and current athletes on my team had/have taken to calling me "old man." By their standards, maybe. Within my own family, I have not quite yet cornered the market on "old." You see, I am the youngest of four siblings. I am the "baby" of the group. I am the only one who does not qualify for membership in AARP. Not yet. But soon. For proof of this, I submit to you this photo of my two older brothers and me. In the middle is my brother Rich, who celebrated his 56th birthday yesterday. My brother Bob is a year older. We visited with each other yesterday in our native New Jersey. So feel free to call me "Old Man" but know that I am not "old" in my personal pecking order ...
