Epic. TIL that Rod Beck was buried in his Cubs uniform.

I drank beer with Rod Beck at his RV, and it wasn't at all creepy. it was the same night my ex-wife yelled at Bobby Hill for being a douche

I'm beginning to think the Cardinals may not catch us.

Man, I still remember this Gaetti home run in 1998...

 

[Post Count Padder]

Wow, there have been some truly terrible players to wear No. 9.

 

Thank you for reminding me Jake Fox was a thing.

Every pic I could find of that HR, the curtain call or him celebrating with Rod Beck after the game were all Getty images...

[Sammy Sofa]

THIS IS A GETTY IMAGE BUT I HOSTED IT ON IMGUR SO ITS COOL

 

That's not how it works.

D'oh I thought it was an issue with taking images hosted off of Getty, but it dawns on me that I'm a moron and its Getty owned images. Well at least they're less likely to find the abuse of the image if its hosted on another site.

 

Fine I'll take it down....this was the image

I was way ahead of you on looking for a Nomar 8 photo and I found the same one you probably did.

how the horsefeathers is posting an image on a message board not fair use?

how the [expletive] is posting an image on a message board not fair use?

presence of ads?

that was the most obvious reason to me, but I'm curious if that actually matters or if whether or not a profit is realized is more important a factor

 

hopefully now that cubinny has half of nsbb on retainer, someone can make room for pro-bono work to address my question

I am not a lawyer but work alongside all the time and in my highly professional opinion I would guess there is no need for a profit to take place for there to be a legal issue.
