End of Era? (Oh no! says a New Yorker.)
We are approaching what may be the end of an era.
I am not talking about anybody’s presidential campaign.
Or the Euro as a unified currency.
Or even the U.S. Postal Service.
To some, the era at issue may be more important than any of these others.
I am speaking, of course, of Mariano Rivera’s tenure as a Yankee.
Mariano says he really means this to be the last season. Honestly. This time. For sure.
As a New Yorker, I unequivocably say–Agh!
As a human being, also subject to the depredations of Time, I say, oh dear.

The feel in the stadium when he used to walk out onto the field was quite amazing. I’m not sure it’s that way quite as much–though possibly. Relief. Awe. Gratitude! (Ha.)
