Just as I did last year, I had the neural network generate a motto for each MLB team for the 2022 season.

These facts are difficult for even a Zen Master to comprehend. Spahn pitched in 4 MLB games at 21 with no wins. Missed next 3 seasons due to WW2. Didn't win 1st game until 25. Won 350+ games after turning 26.

Very disappointed in @Topps customer service. Received two Project 2020 cards I ordered directly from them with defects. I contacted their customer service the day I received them in December. Six months later they are telling me to pound sand and deny my claim.

What's most disappointing is they denied my claim without seeing an image of the defects, asking any clarifying questions, or exchanging information. It was submit the claim in December, six months of crickets, and deny the claim in May.
Mr. Gibson is smiling here as if he knew he would attain Zen over the next 10 years.

It may have been Zen for Mike Nagy in 1969. He understood the interrelationship between the Three True Outcomes: 12-2, 3.11 ERA, 196 IP, 108 BB (ouch), 84 K (no way!), but only 10 HR allowed. His Zen like performance earned a spot on the 1969 Topps All-Star Rookie team.
A Zen Master seeks understanding. I cannot understand why compiling RBIs is not held in esteem. Should the players not strive to bat in runs?

It is said cats are Zen-like. No argument here.

This piece of cardboard helps me attain a Zen like state. Some people think I should enslave with a number and a suffocating plastic case. But Mickey and Kenny prefer to be free.

Attain a Zen-like state through baseball cards. Doesn't this 1954 Bowman Red Schoendienst calm you and make you happy? It's warm and nostalgic and good.
