Don't know what to do w/ the Titans. Do the Oilers count?

Also, back to being a Rams fan, just like when I was a Lakers/Angels/Rams fan growing up. Dickerson and Youngblood to Warner and Bruce? Or substitute Youngblood for Faulk?

GA in caps, hah...I take it thats your boy, ska...chili davis...thats the man.

 

[darthska]

actually, Nolan Ryan is my favorite player of all time... But I definitely came to GA's defense plenty of times. got so sick of hearing so many people trash him because of his calm demeanor... But he owns like every offensive record for us. Dude was money, and is definitely one of the top 4 Angels of all time.

definitely love Chili Davis, too.

 

[vindeezy]

I agree 100% on Ga..im a doyer fan. . But ga took so much heat cuz ppl wanted 30 jacks every yr instead of "only"15-25. Plus he didn't "dive" enough..eff outta here..lol

Also...it was all about tony phillips in 95.

I counted the Royals, so Oilers are good IMO.

Word...c.mack is a legendary figure..Charlie Finley, too.

Crazy Charlie Finley

Recently I heard about this story about Charlie Finley, that I found interesting about his “affection” for the dimensions in the Old Yankee Stadium.
From my main source of everything… Wikipedia (so I know it must be true)……

After supposedly being told by manager Ed Lopat about the Yankees’ success being attributable to the dimensions of Yankee Stadium, he built the “K.C. Pennant Porch” in right field, which brought the right field fence in Kansas City Municipal Stadium to match Yankee Stadium’s dimensions exactly, just 296 feet from home plate. However, a rule passed in 1958 held that no (new or renovated) major-league fence could be closer than 325 feet, so league officials forced Finley to move the fences back after two exhibition games. The A’s owner then ordered a white line to be painted on the field at the original “Pennant Porch” distance, and told the public address announcer to announce “That would have been a home run in Yankee Stadium” whenever a fly ball was hit past that line but short of the fence. The practice was quickly abandoned after the announcer was calling more “would-be” home runs for the opposition than the A’s.
