...Lennon's remark that "we're more popular than Jesus," which set off an anti-Beatle furor last year, was not a boast but an expression of disgust. Though he phrased it ineptly, he was posing the question: What kind of world is it that makes more fuss over a pop cult than over religion...
Though the Belfast doctors make a fetish of avoiding "haste or fuss," the patient is soon on his way to the hospital in the mobile unit, with his heart monitored all the way. If it stops en route, the doctors can restart it, just as they would in the hospital.

And his permissive approach to managing is the perfect prescription for the Cards-especially for such key men as Cepeda and Maris, both of whom came to the team tagged as sulkers and malingerers. No longer. Explains Maris: "I like it here. The pressure...
