Happy Birthday, Cal Ripken! You played 2,632 consecutive games without calling in sick—proving once and for all that the "Iron Man" nickname wasn't casual flattery. Honestly though, most of us struggle just to show up on Mondays; you managed almost two decades straight!Your incredible milestone surpassing Lou Gehrig’s record still stands as a testament not only to your skill but perseverance—a legendary performance fans relish with every replayed moment. On this birthday, we raise our gloves (and cupcakes!) celebrating baseball's true Iron legend whose dedication keeps inspiring even those who consider getting off their couch an endurance sport.
