Rest in peace Loni Anderson. There was something wonderful about her role of Jennifer Marlowe on WKRP. She had the looks and always the upper hand. The role of Jennifer was supposed to be of a ditzy blonde. Loni lobbied for her to be a strong woman who took no bullshit.

This applies to all sports but - and I am not joking - it is absolutely something best understood by a baseball man.

From the Pope - In our competitive society, where it seems that only the strong and winners deserve to live, sport also teaches us how to lose. It forces us, in learning the art of losing, to confront our fragility, our limitations and our imperfections. It is through the experience of these limits that we open our hearts to hope. Athletes who never make mistakes, who never lose, do not exist.
