When I was a kid, I went to a Padres game when they were playing the Mets. Willie Mays was playing his last year on the Mets, and during one of his at-bats, he swung, missed, stumbled and almost fell down. I felt so bad for him, and when I saw this thread I started to wonder if Iron Mike is...
It's a great song! That album is one of those rare gems that doesn't have a dog on it. Albums like AC/DC's "Back in Black," Led Zepplin 4, CCR's "Green River" and ZZ Top's "Tres Hombres" are others that are kick ass from the first to the last track. Considering that Social Distortion has been...

It's nuts. Booomer Esiason made a statement a few days ago that he thinks school like Clemson, Bama, and LSU that already have a high number of players testing positive for Covid are having the kids get sick on purpose so they will have immunity by the time the season starts. Sounds crazy, but...

I'm not too disappointed as we did not have great seats, and knowing how big Jerry World is, I'll be able to see more of the game in the comfort of my home. But on the other hand, I'm really pissed because I campaigned like a southern diplomat (stole that from a Chuck Berry song....which one?)...
The wife and I cancelled our trip to the game last week. Just too many things in play right now that look like the season could be derailed. With teams like Bama, Clemson, LSU, etc. having kids testing positive for Covid, I will not be surprised if the season is cancelled, shortened, or pushed...
