“My dad played for a coal-mining team in eastern Ohio; he was a very good pitcher. If he hadn't hurt his arm, he probably would have got a shot somewhere. He hurt his arm one spring, didn't warm up good enough, couldn't throw a fastball anymore. Another coal miner taught him how to throw the knuckleball.” IfsEnoughHurtTeamTaughtArmsDadSpringShotsMy DadVery GoodWarmGood EnoughCoalEasternPitcherOhioMiningMinersFastballsCoal MinersCoal MiningKnuckleballs Author:Phil Niekro
“Mr. Greenspan did a very good job in the early 1990's. But recently he's fallen prey to this crazy theory that prosperity causes inflation. So they're trying to slow the economy down by raising interest rates. It's like a doctor saying you're in great health, so we have to make you sick a little bit. It's a bizarre theory. It's going to hurt our economy.” TryingLittlesJobsCausesBitsInterestHurtEconomyCrazyTheoryLittle BitEconomicsDoctorsSickRateVery GoodProsperityFinanceFallenBizarreGood JobInflationPreyInterest Rate Author:Steve Forbes
