I had been told the story of “if”s since I was young, sitting with my grandfather in his TV room. “If the Indians could just hit the ball.” “If they could stop it with the careless errors.” “If they could just get a sensible manager!” A manager!…

Buffalo Bill had used this location to prove that the Native Americans were…
