It's not the young reporters I'm talking about when I write on the disgust of Frank Jr. being endlessly compared to his Dad. I talk about the seasoned pros who do it anyway, for years and years. I think at least as long as I'm alive, so at least 1975 (best year ever, modestly-speaking of course), they've been comparing Jr. to Sr.

There's a cheesy (in my opinion) thread in the Frank forum about what one would say to Frank Sr. if he were alive.... I would invite him to a drink, first of all, and then ask him if he isn't pissed off that his son is perpetually compared to him.... As mentioned, I am a junior myself, and I think my Dad would hate his son to have to endure this crap year after year, decade after decade.... I'm sure Frank Sr., although he can't help it, would agree, and then politely excuse himself to talk to a chick sitting next to us, since I'm a square....
