lucky guy, Fred killed the last guy who challenged his numbers. of course that was in 1894 aw.... gimme a break, man, I haven't killed anybody all week !! :wink:

So, jump in the car and head for the 'Burgh. You can be there in 3 hours, no? If I hadn't just driven by Pittsburgh yesterday, I might be tempted You don't plan things so good, do you ? my wife has this thing for going to work and making a living. I don't know what's up with that You don't plan things so good, do you ?

I'm not superstitious, but I'd prefer that they get above 32 games or at 30 or 31 games above 500. I was less than one year old in 69, but I remember 1984. Those 2 didn't end so well. It can't happen again. My heart can't take it this time. I was younger in '84, able to recover. Now? Wounds like that might take me out. Oh ?? :shock: Is that loss to the '35 Tigers still fresh in your memory? Well, yeah.... that one hurt too. We won 100 games that year !!
