Today in 1979, you lost one of these motherfuckers in the parking lot ten seconds after buying it. According to the laws of physics, it’s still out there bouncing somewhere.

Get the toy ambulance ready because I've got 15 cans of Chef Boyardee lined up and I don't know if he can get that much air.

1970's east coast company ...

I say hello to that kid Anthony walking around the North End. He must be close to 70 now. Quiet, unassuming guy. Goes to the same coffee shop as me. It's called "The Thinking Cup". A crunchy coffee shop right smack in the middle of the North End. All kinds of people get along fine. Thing of beauty.

Only 2 times since 1980 has someone hit .380 or higher George Brett and Tony Gwynn.
in 1994 Gwynn hit .394
Ichiro, Boggs and Gwynn were probably the best pure hitters in recent times

A dozen! Did you cash out big?
I used to have over 1million baseball cards at one time , it was kind of a hobby/mini money maker for me in my teen years.
Between that and a 2 year lucky streak at the dog track in High School,, most people thought I was a drug dealer....not a joke.

A few thousand and some cool memorabilia in the closet , mainly for nostalgia sake. About 100 comic book as well, some of it is pretty rare though
Nothing too valuable but some pretty cool items either way.

Lol


No list of terrible sports mascots is complete without the Supersonics’ Wheedle, who looks like he just got kicked off Sesame Street for asking Big Bird to buy him crystal meth.

History was made in 1979 when engineers finally designed a slide that somehow combined the least possible amount of fun with the maximum possible amount of severe leg burns.

Let me translate this chart for any pitchers out there who may not be visual learners:

You're fucked.
