  1. Dick Stuart once hit 66 home runs in a season in the minor leagues, and signed his autograph, "Dick Stuart 66". Later

  3. If I HAD to escape Sweden (but who would want to?) I'd do it in one of these: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saab_JAS_39_Gripen Later
  4. The guy who thought of that should be fed to the alligators. But I seriously doubt you can find any in Lowell. That is just world class stupid. Later

Like, he did an in-your-face victory lap less than an hour after his team won for the first time in a decade and a half. There's a story about a Texas judge who issued an acquittal in a murder case because the victim "just needed killin' ". That may be the case here. Later
  6. It was one stop on the 7 train from where I lived. (near Main Street Flushing) And there were no steel columns blocking our view. Later

  9. Too bad. They were getting ready to start a "That Vodka was Delicious" thread. OE: I just realized that we may have banned one (or more) of Donald Trump's Girl Friends, offering Viagra and reaching out to people who don't have small hands. Later
  10. Centerfield wrote: I feel like Terry Collins would have been an armed services guy. Hey! Are you saying there's something wrong with that? Later
  11. TheOldMole wrote: Brooklyn Dodger fan, lost until the Mets arrived. I was living in the midwest at the time (Iowa City), but immediately loved the Mets. Same here. And I couldn't bring myself to root for the MFYs. I tried to root for the Pirates and Reds, because there were rumors that they might move to New York. But it wasn't the same. And suddenly, there were the Mets. And the sun was shining. Later

    SPLIT

    Wifey says she's too freaked out by the trailer to see it. So I'll either see it alone or wait for it to come to TV. Later

    LOL Yankees

    If I want to see that team's hats, I'll just check out pictures of guys knocking over liquor stores on the TV news. Later

    LOL Yankees

    Wow! A slap at Jeter. And a good one, too. You have real potential. Just a reminder. Please feel free to use "MFY" instead of the actual name of that team. Later

  17. 41Forever wrote: Do you think they planned to all wear the gold necklaces? Or is that just a de facto part of the uniform? Yes, a fashion look soon to be replaced/ enhanced by tats. Later
  18. Welcome, 41. Nice to have you here. Later
  19. Centerfield wrote: That seems way high. The kid has hit for one season. Is he talking about Smith or Rosario? Later
  20. Edgy MD wrote: Well, among what can be considered Disney characteristics is the very forced PG-ness you describe. I guess it could be considered that, but it didn't feel cloying like other Disney films. Later
  21. I'm beginning to think about why Colon may have left. He would have had a heart attack from all the running to back up third base on any fly ball hit in the gap to a Cespedes, Granderson, Bay outfield. Later
  22. I was floored by the use of x' as the possessive. I took 5 years of Spanish and never came across that. We used "de la Bronx". (of the Bronx) Later
  23. Randy Jones - ailing. https://www.yahoo.com/news/m/aa05ad74-dc44-34d4-94b9-cfba852b224e/former-cy-young-award-winner.html Later

One thing that D-Dad noticed was that in Virginia in the early 1960's you didn't see one person smoking within the film. Kevin Costner chews a lot of gum, though, which appears to be a wink and a nod to the cigarettes he's not smoking. Again, for the kids in the audience.... MMYF said a lot of the same things. We also talked about the segregated buildings, rest rooms and the Woolworth in town and like there had been in the Southern towns we visited as kids. I liked the music. And the cars, lots of them, all appropriate. One teensy technical quibble. The main character was asked if she knew Analytic Geometry, yet many of the formulas on the chalk boards were really Calculus. I didn't notice any discernible Disney-ism (if there is such a word). It was well done and deserves any award recognition it may receive. Later
