  1. Yeah, but does it have a Hemi? Yeee-hahhh!
  2. Might sound hokey, but for me, especially being a kid and teen, listening to the radio was quite captivating and it felt a bit magical trying to visualize the game in my mind. I didn’t feel cheated or denied some sort of privilege I should be entitled to and still don’t now. Probably because of growing up with it.
  3. Driving through Alabama easily going 80, near bumper to bumper in the passing lane, and couldn’t get over to get out of the passing lane. Had to laugh when I went under a bridge and cops are standing up on it shooting radar. I mean seriously, what’s the cutoff?
  4. …..also available in 4+kids strength.
  5. Talk about your double headers. So that’s what Yogi meant when he said “Let’s play two”.
  6. Like with McGwire, Bonds, Sosa and Clemens.
  7. Appreciate that, but it’s too late, they’re off and running here.
  8. I should apologize for singling out public workers since so many projects are bid out to contractors. Many think the workers on roads and sewers are their municipality employees standing around. They all look the same in their neon green t-shirts and reflective vests.
  9. The time Bonds was exposed as prima donna he truly was:
  10. It was Bruce Smith’s birthday yesterday. Apparently, he was late to his party because he was driving and on the way there fell asleep at a red light.
  11. Pitch clock is a reason baseball is at the forefront for me again. Just hope the looming ABS doesn’t muck it up. Baseball was 1st as the sport we played collectively growing up and being in Yankees country made it all the more appealing. I could watch the worst MLB teams play, unlike football. First off half standing around is as American as apple pie as evidenced by the crews of public workers on any job site. Secondly, can your kid senselessly chew and spit sunflower shells in these other sports? Apparently, it’s quite the stress reliever from the pressures of…..having to stand around? 🤷‍♂️ Took me a bit to get use to it, thought the better teams would be the bigger beneficiaries but that’s not the case. It’s pretty much a 50/50 split between home and visitors.
  12. I’m back to loving baseball. The guy I’m watching bat right now is a big reason…..I’ve come to accept that he’s now a Dodger.
  13. Kind of surprised by soccer team values and rankings, thought they’d be higher.
  14. Guess you could pro-rate them off this: https://www.statista.com/statistics/278027/brand-value-of-sport-teams-franchises-worldwide/ …..though AI Google has its estimates which are higher.
  15. Plus he’s got LeBron to boot….or boot.
  16. It’s a great area. They take care of their own there. My kid got a nice place in part because he’s Polish and says it’s still as nice there as when he left a few years ago. All due respect to Buffalo Polish, the tradition, heritage and culture is incomparable. The immensity of the neighborhood with so many Polish people with store signs, restaurant menus and newspapers in Polish kind of blew me away.
  17. ……so you don’t need smarts to win an MVP?
  18. Yeah, but what he’s sayin’ is fightin’ words ‘round these here parts and some don’t take kindly to that sort of cussin’!
  19. He worked at Wegmans in H.S., got a scholarship, think it covered the cost of a book. He lived in Greenpoint when they announced opening one in Brooklyn, he had visions of memory lane, but It ended up opening after he went to school in Paris. When he got back that and the one in the Village were opened. Like you, goes for the nostalgia.
  20. So giving up 13 runs in the last 5 is nothing to get excited about?…….I kid, I kid.
  21. America Idol’s greatest performer imo, though I never watched after this season. Here’s the whole ball of wax:
  22. If you know this cartoon, and even if you don’t You’ll appreciate this. It’s hypnotic.
  23. I was a Freddie fanatic and saw Queen live, but George Michael knocked it out of the park: …..and here too:
  24. Nice to see someone wanting to craft something they could just buy with a tap of their finger…. …..with that, I got nothing.
