i dont care who wins as long as its not the yankees. and i might watch if the can get the games down to 2 and a half hours. i swear, everytime a batter steps out of the box, i want to go down to the field and give him a shot in the face. seriously. maybe baseball fans dont know just how boring baseball can get.

Even in Canada they hate the Yankees! :wink:

I don't care who wins as long as it's the White Sox win.

i am willing to do whatever it takes to make George Bell the all-time home run leader.

also, does anyone know what Danny Tartabull's been up to?

Thats a fucking 1987 Tops card isnt it?

I remember that year so well card-wise.

And you can have all my Danny Tartabull and Spike Owen cards.

As soon as I get them out of the spokes of my Dyno bicycle.

And wasn't Pete La Cock also a Royal?

edit:

Yup.

He'll have to be in a support role. Prolly as a pedarast.

Just look at that 'stache.

True story...his in-laws lived down the street from us when I was a kid. As a huge Royals fan it was always weird when Pete would come into the neighborhood & hang out.

Some of us can't handle the fast sports. Like curling.

to be truthful, most of the time i would rather watch cricket that baseball, and i know what watching cricket is like, since ive spent some bored weekdays at my granparents house (who lived in carlisle, btw, for those who know where that is) over the summer.

Watched Extreme Dodgeball on GSN the other night. That's whack, but I could probably play it. If there's Extreme Tetherball and Extreme Kickball, that, too. Dunno about Extreme Pegboard Climbing, though. That might not work.

I don't think any shit you played in school creates such a division of feelings as dodgeball. Sadistic joy for some, absolute horror for others.

For my part, my small hands didn't allow me to get a good grip on the ball and throw very hard, but I could catch anything that came my way.

You may or may not know this, but his dad is original Hollywood Squares host Peter Marshall, his uncle is "Major Nelson" Larry "J.R. Ewing" Hagman, and his grandmother is Broadway's original Peter Pan, Mary Martin. All those different last names to choose from, and he went with LaCock. I'll take Paul Lynde for the block.
