    one of the first guys that stood out to me when i joined. never read more misery than what he wrote. oh and his insane use of abbreviations. its almost an art

    also does greenhornet get in with the tallest of tall tales. that scumbag was something else

    Hornet was a one hit wonder, champ is the gift that keeps on giving.

    while true, that was a walk off grand slam in game 7 as far as one-hit wonders go.

    yes

    yes b/c being put on a HOF(which we don't even have) would surely make anyone full of themselves.

    Maybe the new board format has crippled everyone's sense of humor.

    I haven't been on the board for a while. 1. It is nice to see the new format. 2. I'm glad Champ is still around...you can not get characters like him anywhere else!

    That movie was so bad. Horribly predictable, unrealistic, and just all around awful. Clint Eastwood should make more movies like Gran Torino.

    You could teach them...and develop the kind of patience needed to be a Jets fan in the process.

    anybody on this board who saw the actual telecast of the only super bowl victory on live tv should automatically be inducted.
    we are now waiting 45 years for a repeat. that is called paying your dues!

    "Trouble with a Curve"? Is that a Dale Earnhardt documentary?

    which part was unrealistic, finding the next nolan ryan right outside your hotel door, or that the blind scout was the only one able to see the hole in the swing of the number 1 prospect?
