I don't know if it's a curse or a blessing, but I'm a numbers person. I've spent 20+ years mentally accumulating all sorts of relatively useless statistical data. For example, I can tell you that Willie McCovey hit 521 home runs in his career, which ties him on the all-time home run list with Ted Williams and Frank Thomas. That total puts McCovey 13 home runs behind Jimmy Foxx and 15 homers behind Mickey Mantle. My ability to remember trivia may make me moderately useful at pub quizzes, but it also undoubtedly makes me a pain in the ass on long road trips.
