[fimg=777]http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7304/12064682286_461b73ca46_o.jpg[/fimg] I'm pretty sure that's Roman Polanski, not Buddy. I don't know what he's doing with Yvonne Harrelson, but that's their business. I thought Polanski, too, as soon as I posted the pic.

  16. I always remembered the "white" wall appearing in the early '70's Mets intro to Met games. So I searched youtube, and found it. Look at the 18 second mark. [youtube:33zuyfae]918K4Hp-xWo[/youtube:33zuyfae]
  17. From Paul Lukas's ESPN column: Also in 1967: The wall got a new color scheme. Instead of Shea's familiar dark green with white distance numbers, it was very light green with black numbers (you can just make out the numbers in the background of this shot). But this proved so unpopular that the original colors were restored after only seven home games. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=lukas/080926
  18. and a 25-year-old two-time Cy winner At the risk of sacrilege here, it probably should have been 3. No matter how good the R.A. Dickey narrative was. This wouldn't be the first time that a Met pitcher might've gotten into the meat middle of someone else's Cy Young sandwich, thus preventing a three-peat. At the risk of even more sacrilege, go and compare Seaver and Gibson's '69 stats, with close attention to some of those stats that either didn't exist, or were largely ignored 45 years ago. There might be a Mets precedent for Dickey's thwart*. Seaver had the ever-important Wins, the WHIP and the "terrific" story. Gibby had just about everything else. And Gibby did it for 40+ more innings than Seaver did. http://www.baseball-reference.com/leagues/NL/1969-pitching-leaders.shtml *Assuming, of course, that you think Dickey was undeserving of his CYA in the first place.

  20. Does anyone know about the newer computer versions of SOM? I grew up on that game but haven't played in a very long time (very long time). I heard that with the new computer version, you could play your opponent on-line, without either of you having to leave your homes. BTW, when I first read Seawolf's original post, I thought that he was asking if others wanted to go in on a set just so he could own one of the cards. I didn't read it as a suggestion to set up an actual play league.

Could you get that kind of close-up detail on a batter by taking a picture from the outfield seats? Are you permitted to bring in a zoom lens with that kind of zoom/focus?
