  1. No kidding. I find her to be pretty Fug actually.
  2. Hurdle orders Sheets to peg Pedroia for revenge for last year.
  3. Gehrig, Ruth, and then................................................................................... ................................................................................................................. ....................................................................................................................Jeter
  4. Don Kessinger lives in Oxford, and I was talking to him a few years ago at a baseball game he was at (annoying him about Cubs questions, but he was gracious), and he told me a cool story about his first all-star appearance. He said his one big memory of his first appearance was sitting in the dugout after an inning was over and having Willie Mays and Hank Aaron come sit on either side of him. He was like "whoa....how in the hell did I get my ass here??"
  5. The stupid conundrum of this whole thing is that back in the older days when the game DIDN'T matter, they kept the starters in there usually the whole game, and now that it DOES matter they do this stupid Little League type thing where everyone has to get in or they feel slighted.
  6. I had to leave, but was Gibson there? Yep.
  7. Have you been there before? Personally I thought the same way as you until I went there. What a dump. Cramped dark narrow concourses, extremely steep upper deck, cramped seats. Yeah, like I said before, nobody loves Baseball history as much as me, but Yankee Stadium didn't impress me a bit.
  8. I didn't see George Kell or Tom Seaver either.
  9. Johnny Bench, Hank Aaron, Joe Morgan. Ron Santo had to be escorted away. Aaron was there. On my recollection of who actually are HOFers that are still living that I didn't see there: Musial, Bench, Morgan, Jim Bunning, Catfish Hunter, Duke Snider, Eddie Matthews, Koufax, Red Schoendienst, Yaz?, Nolan Ryan Some of those might have been there, but I just missed them.
  10. Feller has always been known as a bit of a douchebag. Did have a cool windup though!! http://img169.imageshack.us/img169/7200/fellergifjb3.gif How fast did he throw? I heard stories that he got it up in the mid 100s. Mid 100's?? Now THAT would be something. Just kidding, I know what you mean. He was the fastest pitcher of his generation, so I'm sure he could probably get near 100. Doubt he could go over it...that's rare indeed.
  11. Dear Prudence = TREMENDOUSLY underrated Beatles song. Too bad the commercial producers were too cheap to get the real thing.
  12. I'm surprised that egomaniac JoeMo wasn't on the field. Maybe he refused to stand near Ryno....

  14. I'm sure he has NO clue. He's like, who is this guy? Willie Mays??
  15. No, he went in as a Red Sox. He's the reason they changed the rule. http://web.baseballhalloffame.org/hofers/detail.jsp?playerId=111153 Still, why the hell does he have a Yankee hat on, besides the typical forced special moment from Fox. Where did he win the World Series at? :roll: So I guess Mark Grace would be a Diamondback? http://www.markgrace.com/images/grace_hof.jpg lol :-)
  16. no Stan the Man?? I heard he was in real bad health lately. Very sad that he isn't there.
  17. This is the only time I actually don't mind it. I think it's cool seeing all the old guys.
  18. Ronny should be there at Third Base. what a bunch of BULLCRAP. It never ceases to get my blood boiling.
  19. I guess my premium membership expired or something....I'm seeing ads now.
