I guaran-feckin'-tee that the greatest player in the history of baseball would have never uttered those words ... in 72 million years.

You are so right! Say Hey!

I used to be an avid baseball fan. Between the cheating and grossly overpaid players such as this Phillips — a 269 hitter — I really can’t get excited about it anymore. They should give Pete Rose $72 million for the wrong they did to him. At least in hockey which goes on for 10 months there is no cheating that we know of and they work very hard for their money.

My first ballgame with my Dad was in 1955 at the Polo Grounds. Whitey Lockman his a home run, and #24 was 3-for-3.

I remember the day he told me there would be no next year like it was yesterday.
