Publication Follow-Up
Hello Folks! How are you all doing?
How do you feel about sport? I am not talking about playing sport, but about the humble art of following your favourite athlete, your favourite team or your national team on television from the comfort of your sofa or, at least, at the stadium during the week end.
I like to watch sport on TV, in life I have not done it very often, especially if I had more creative things to do, but every time I have done it I have been enraptured by the athletic performances of people ready to give everything for their flag and to achieve the highest step on the podium.
Striking athletic gestures almost make me want to try it myself.
Fortunately, my wisdom always prevails.
I remember, for example, an artistic gymnastics grand prix I saw with my father when I was a kid, or my first baseball game, during a business trip I made to Cleveland several years ago, a colleague took me to the stadium to see Cleveland Indians vs Boston Red Sox if I remember correctly… Amazing! I still have in my ears the sound of the ball being thrown by the pitcher at an unimaginable speed… wooosh woooosh…
