Not playing ball back then but I will share that having lived in NYC for most of the 1990s, I had a secondary awful feeling of wanting to be there to help but being unable to go. I had the feeling of a dad who could not make it to his high school son's state championship football game due to a delayed flight. Wanting so badly to be there and feeling powerless in my desire to go. I spent much of the day playing with our 1 and 3 year old girls, pushing the former on a tricycle and cheering the latter on.
