  1. And rubbing it in.
  2. Did I just get **** blocked?
  3. Yeah, I thought every baseball fan from my generation knew that. I even remember watching an episode of Hollywood Squares where Peter Marshall was very proud because LaCock had homered the night before.
  4. can someone provide instructions on the easiest way to include a photo in a post? Right click on the image you want to post and select "copy image location".

Highlight or select the image link and then use the IMG function key located at the top of the box where you compose your post. The format should look like this: Alternatively, you can use the fimg= key to control the size of your image ----- [fimg=n]image link[/fimg] where n is a number you select and insert to determine the image size.

Then I thought it was a "season missed due to injury" connection, but Alomar/Benitez didn't do that. Then I thought it had something to do with trades, but Macdonald wasn't traded at any point. But the "hint" makes me think it has nothing to do with anything. So lost. (If I ever get one of these right, I have a quiz to give.) If it's a Blue Jays connection, then why wouldn't Lee Mazzilli or Mookie Wilson or dozens of others be in this exclusive club? If it's a season missed due to injury, then why isn't Matt Harvey in the club?

I feel like voters failed to embrace the bad news this year, like they failed to embrace urinals last year. This. I'm fit to be tied whenever I read that someone automatically won't vote for a cover because it depicts a loss or a "negative" event.

Any second now, he's probably gonna submit ol' me, the Dook, as a guess, just to maintain his stupid charade. Also, easy on the Trump jokes in the baseball forum. Not that they're not warranted, but ... you know."
