Remember well. Tough month to be the top story with the moon landing and Ted’s driving misdemeanor.

Jerry Qualls? Not sure of the spelling, but yes I recall it. Truly, great days!

Dave Guard of the Kingston Trio was dating Tom Seaver’s sister and her parents gave him a song that had been in the family for thirty years. “Scotch and Soda” didn't have a songwriter credit so Dave took the credit and it became the most requested song of the Kingston Trio, 1957-1967.

I was 14 months old and remember every minute of it!!!

Nah. :)

But I later remember jerry koosman, tom matlock, tom seaver, rusty staub, dave kingman, willie montenez, felix milan,

I probably spelled half those wrong and they were probably not even part of that team :)

I think Seaver was

Da Mets haven't been pulling off many miracles lately.The Red Sox *absolutely* have gotten the last laugh.

They went 15-17 over the next month, dropping 10 games behind in the division.

Why was the all-star game a dud last night?
I imagined it?
The managers ?
The Fox broadcast?
