I started watching baseball in June 2013. Obviously, great players have come and gone. As a Tigers fan, I still think about Victor Martinez, Miguel Cabrera, and I always get emotional watching Prince Fielder's retirement announcement.

Seeing how many new stars come about, a question I always think about is: At what point will there be no players who were around when I started watching baseball?

At this point, active players that come to mind who have been in the league at least since June 2013 include Justin Verlander, Mike Trout, Max Scherzer, Jose Altuve, and Salvador Perez. It's getting pretty thin.

If not, let this be my petition as someone who knows nothing about making a website. I know about the wagering calculator on j-archive, but I think it would be cool if there was a site that randomized everyone's cash total and which position you would be in all in one place. There could also be a randomizer as to whether each player gets FJ correct.

Obviously, there will always be one player who's unguarded, and I'm sure the amount of possession increases for the team with the full 11, but based on the few games I've seen with a red card, it doesn't seem as big an advantage as it sounds (currently watching MEX v RSA; South Africa doesn't seem to be at a major disadvantage as a result). Are there any games/stats that suggest a red card to heavily impact the rest of the game? I don't watch many games in general, nor have I played soccer/football, so take my questioning with a grain of salt.

Edit: Another Mexican goal after I made the post, so that might answer my question lol.

I don't think it's the fact that they're rich that people have a problem with. Having money allows people to have basic needs of living, especially if someone decides to have a family.

I can understand people hating on people who flaunt how rich they are, but then it's the bragging that's the issue, not being rich in and of itself (and is that really the motivation). I can understand people thinking rich people aren't charitable, but do you really know every monetary transaction every rich person does?

I also think it's weird how people complain about certain people having certain wealth but they don't bat an eye over another person (typically a celebrity they like) having the same, if not more, income.

Perhaps, dare I say, it's jealousy over people who work hard for that money? Owning a company/being the CEO is still a tough job even if they don't do as much physical labor.

Not trying to make it sound like I'm degrading students' intelligence, it just seems like something so fundamental to know, regardless of era.

I had like three 7th-grade students in my last period on Friday ask me what time it is. This was for a band class, where all the students face where the clock is behind the conductor's podium, so it's not like they don't have a clock available without their phones/laptops. I've subbed at elementary schools where there is either a lesson or a chart hung in the room about telling time, so it's not really a case of schools not teaching it (unless it's a case of different curriculum in a different area within the district, but I doubt it), and I'm sure, at the very least, the parents would've went over it with their kids at some point in their childhood. I'm fully aware that in a world of growing technology, analog clocks aren't often used, but what about an instance where that's not an option, depending on the building that they may work at in the future?
