The answer, dawg, is respect and appreciate the past, be frustrated about the present, and be hopeful for the future.
Respect and appreciate is fine, but all this board does is live in the past. This thread, which is supposed to be about Thursday’s trade deadline, has references to Frank Lane, Red Schoendienst, Rocky Colavito, and musical groups/artists who were popular 50 years ago.
Yesterdays just a memory. You are correct on the oldism of the board. Most grade out out between 60-80 years old.
