Thanks seawolf - that photo always makes me smile

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

It's been mentioned here before, but Steve Trachsel does have a touch of Brad Garrett in his expression.

[Willets Point]

I always thought Al Leiter looked a lot like a guy I used to work with, Ron Carnegie, who is famous enough to have his own IMDB page.

He doesn't look that much like Al in this picture though.

and on a somewhat baseball-related note;
I'm flipping channels the other day and some station is playing old clips of Jefferson Airplane while various talking heads spoke about them - and at one clip I'm wondering why the hell they're interviewing super-agent Scott Boras about Gracie Slick.
And then I realize that it's not Scott Boras but rather a middle-aged Marty Balin serving as a dead-ringer for Boras. If someone can dig up a couple of proper-aged head shots of those two ...

Another good one is a middle-aged Jim Bouton and former Sec of State Zbigniew Brzezinski. It's uncanny.

[MFS62]

I've heard that after he lost his fastball, Brzezinski tried a knuckler, too.

Don Aase/David Crosby is a hoot

Maybe Don Aase can start donating sperm to celebrity lesbian couples.

Steve Traschel

[Frayed Knot]

'Cept that Trax has hair.
But when both have their hats on that's not a bad one.
