Did I read somewhere that Lynn Swann is a repuke?
They're showing an old old Mr. Rogers with him on it, explaining how despite being one BADASS football player, he also did ballet. Reminded me I thought I heard that somewhere...

Man, I LOVED the Steelers *back in tha day*... :bounce:

15. I wish I could take the Reds with me.
Sadly, I'll soon have to cheer for the White Sox. Considering the crappy DH rule, it's still better than than watching the Cubs.

2. Yeah he is
but Franco Harris is a democrat but the Bus Bettis gave 2K to Bush, I also believe Dan Rooney is a democrat. Sucks don't it but politics in sports doesnt matter really, like take Peter Angelos, he did a lot of great stuff for workers and is a dem contributor but I can't stand what he did to the baltimore orioles and I was like in your face Petey, when I found out about the new team.

4. Talk about conflicts
Edited on Thu Sep-30-04 10:42 AM by RatTerrier
Hell, Bud Selig is a Democrat, but very annoying as commissioner/team owner.

I'm conflicted.

9. bud selig is the douchebag of baseball
as a milwaukeean, i've had more than my share of experiences with our pal bud.

he ruined the brewers, which is why they haven't had a winning season in over a decade.

lots of people in milwaukee hate that guy.

10. At least Bud didn't coddle Peter Angelos again
I give Bud that, he's gonna make a lot of people here in the DC metro area happy.

24. I think he coddled Angelos plenty.
Guaranteed minimum income for the Orioles, set an inflated value for the team (useful if Angelos decides to sell), and will bankroll a regional sports network.

11. It does and I think my baseball hero, Cal Ripken Jr is one too
Sigh, he did a chat on the white house.gov site a year or so ago. Damnit man, be like most of your Marylanders.
