  1. Just watched this whole thing. Just outstanding I wish Contrares were a Met
  2. Poor Tigers and Yankees in the 10th inning. I don’t know what the temp is there but it’s about 95 here.
  3. This is a true story. I got CVS brand swabs with my OTC Aetna rewards (which has gone from $150 a quarter to $30 but that’s another story). TWO TIMES in a couple of weeks the cotton came off in my ear too far down for my hubby to get it out even with tweezers. Both times I had to pay over $100 to have a doctor remove it because Aetna considered it a surgical procedure. The doctor finally told me to get the good swabs. ‘Just go to Walmart and get the good swabs’
  4. I was surprised to find he has blue eyes.
  5. I think it was the oh so fair (as in Pretty Bobby Shaftoe) Washington pitching coach that I took an immediate dislike to when I saw him a few weeks ago
  6. While I appreciate the various gestures I think it’s time to stop having uniforms as posters for breast cancer, vets awareness, pride nights, mothers/Father’s Day, etc etc That stuff is all good but making a person wear gear to spread awareness of something we’re already aware of is annoying just my two cents. Players have personal thoughts too and probably would rather keep them to themselves
  7. But I laughed at MFS’s analogy
  8. Go fishing Mendy. You’re free now
  9. So it’s true…
  10. Pirates in Cubs division; I’m also a Pirates fan….this makes me double happy.
  11. Lol thanks!
  12. I should amend this to say that yes, I did meet Rusty
  13. In seventh grade I had a classmate who was in love with Rick Wise. I resented her because A) she was cuter than me and if Rick Wise ever met her he would immediately fall in love with her of course. And B) she was a Phillies fan and her favorite player (Rick Wise) was traded to the Phillies and C) (and most importantly) her dad got a job in Bryn Mar (sp) and they moved there, close to Philly. I figured Rick Wise would certainly be her next door neighbor and the rest of the Phillies at least close friends. With a 12 year old. But that was my mindset and I loved Rusty and Wayne Garrett and John Milner and I’d never ever ever get to meet them (I was Right!) She never missed a chance to mention this Rick Wise game, and now 50 some years after my jealous resentment has waned, I realized was really quite a feat. I should look her up. probably married to Rick Wise’s son.
