Rachel Robinson is 103 years old, widowed over half a century ago, never remarried, and has dedicated her adult life to preserving and building upon her husband’s legacy. My first wife left me because I accidentally put a pair of clean socks in the dirty clothes hamper.

Super Sky Point to Bob Horner. He was the NL Rookie of the Year and an All-Star but if you were around back then you know he was more than that. Much more. He was a fixture in the homes of millions of us through the miracle of cable television during those epic childhood summers that seemed like they’d never end. I was a fan for over 40 years but had never met Bob until I interviewed him last December about Dale Murphy’s Hall of Fame case. As you’d expect, Bob was a fierce advocate for his fellow Fulton County basher. How could he not be? They were Murph and Horner. Horner and Murph. The Hall and Oates of the Launching Pad. You know, these sky points all suck to write but this one hurts more than most. The four-homer game, the bad perm, Chief Noc-A-Homa waiting by his teepee for another Horner long ball. I have tweeted a lot about Bob Horner through the years and it’s because he represents to me, and I suspect many of you too, something far bigger than baseball: WTBS coming out of the magic box on top of my 400-pound Zenith, cool air coming through my bedroom window after another afternoon of Wiffle Ball, and Rick Mahler (probably) toeing the rubber at about 7:05 while hoping to keep the Braves in it with smoke and mirrors long enough for Horner and Murph to do some damage. And me sprawled out on green and yellow shag carpet in Kentucky paying 100 times more attention to Skip Caray, Ernie Johnson, and Pete Van Wieren than any of my teachers. Farewell, you sweet slugging bastard. Tell St. Peter you brought your glove for the hot corner and to write you into the cleanup spot. #RIP

I just had a full circle moment. Growing up I always listened to @680TheFan with my dad. Today I picked up my almost 3 YO daughter from school and asked her if she wanted to listen to music. Her response: “I want to listen to football aka @680TheFan

Super Sky Point to Ted Turner, who pulled arguably the all-time greatest narcissistic team owner move ever in 1977 when he got fed up and just named himself the Braves’ manager. Career record: 0-1. Tell St. Peter you’ll be there at :05 after the hour, big guy. #RIP

Sometimes this world wears you out and leaves you cynical … and then you see a moment like this and realize there will always be more good than bad.

Beau Bock was ahead of his time on so many levels, doing hot takes, sports talk on radio and podcasting before they were en vogue. He died of heart failure last week. ajc.com/arts-entertainment/2…

Super Sky Point to Davey Lopes, who had a big role in my formative years as a baseball fan. As with many other stars of the era, I pretended I was him in Wiffle Ball games and gleefully pulled his 3-D cards from boxes of Frosted Flakes. A multi-faceted, winning ballplayer. #RIP

Fulton animal shelter is over their capacity. Some of these dogs on this list may not make it if they can't clear space... fultonanimalservices.com/at-… Please go and at least foster one if you can. Ours doesn't like other dogs in her space or I'd go get Lulu right now.
