I had the chance to name our last cat after Casey Stengel, much like the "Old Perfessor" Casey lived to the ripe old age of 20. Ever since grade school I have always fought to wear the number 7, growing up in the 50s and 60s you can easily guess why. Although I was never much of a baseball player I still have several football jerseys from junior high years thru college with my number 7. I need to add that there was never much of a carry over value of the number to my meager talent level.
