I recognize the guy playing Leo Durocher as Chrisopher Merloni, who played a cop for years on one of the Law & Order shows, but in that show I remember him having more hair. In "42" as Durocher he is completely bald on top. So is that some kind of a skull cap he is wearing or is he wearing a rug in the Law & Order shows?

That is funny. I just watched the movie last night as well. I was watching it on my computer during the Phillies game. I thought it was a great movie..... How about you?

I think that he probably shaved the top of his head for the movie 42. His hair is way too thin and short to not be noticeable as a toupee on Law & Order. I never once questioned it in Law & Order.

I thought it was a good movie. I was familiar with the story but I still learned some about guys like Durocher and Pee Wee Reese. I think a Durocher biography would probably have some crazy shit in it. I remember seeing him in an old rerun of the Munsters where he was thinking about signing Herman to the Dodgers. I forget how Herman screwed it up. I just remember Durocher saying "I don't know if I should sign him with the Dodgers or send him to Vietnam".

No, but I am just surprised by the tone of your post...... You seem angered about it.

Well I was a bit angered i spent 15$ dollars and two and a half hours on a ticket to a terrible movie. Plus I just hate Robinson.

You don't sound like the same baseball fan who's made many posts on this site. In fact, don't take this personal, but you sound like an outright, pure freaking racist. Wtf is it all about?

Racist? Because I dislike one black person. I guess I have to love every black person to not be dubbed a racist? My favorite player on the phillies is Ryan Howard for goodness sake. Lol I don't have to prove I'm not racist to you. I hate every player of every team besides the phils. Always have always will. Pee wee Reese, Robinson, furillo, whoever. I don't distinguish

Phillies fan 382, you have a lot of hate for a young person. Not cool at all. Not to mention the fact that jackie robinson is not only a 'black person", but an icon in american sports history. Please tone it down because it really sounds ugly.

_Phillies_: Nice Steve Balmer looking evil pic. How did you insert the image? Must it be on the site somewhere?

it's on the option bar when you post, to the right of the bold-italic-underline

Exactly. I could not have said it better.
