Sports are cathartic, but don't take losing to heart

It has been a rough go for me of late on the field of bloodless battles we call sports. Not sure how you are all handling things, but this piece is not about you. It's about me. So let's establish that first and foremost.

To start, let's get the wonky "inside baseball" stats out of the way, even though my favorite spectator sport doesn't begin in North America, Latin America, South Korea, Japan, and other outposts with divine diamonds, until pitchers and catchers report next month.

My New York Knicks (fact check, author not owner, but fan, so stop "Baiduing") are muddling in mediocrity, while my fave, "The Madge "from Mickeytown in Orlando, are proud owners of the NBA's rottenest record. I guess the team can take heart that they're a short Uber ride away from Disney World and its motto "where dreams come true".Throw the local team making the postseason into that dream catcher I suppose.
