I think the best coaches are those who, as an athlete, over-achieved their natural talent level by watching and listening to their coaches. These guys tend to pick up a lot of insight into the...

    Tuesday OT: a business from your childhood that is extinct

    I remember Beno's and the cash processing system but I thought they used vacuum tubes rather than a pulley system; I might be conflating Beno;s and Brandeis.
