Too bad you left Brooklyn, Duke.

You kidding? Even in retirement he wasn't about to go back there...

LOL I'll ignore that remark. I grew up a few miles from Ebbets Field and my Dad was a Dodger fan. The Bums came very close to staying in Brooklyn. Which wasn't a bad place in the 50's, even through the 60's. Thanks to the strongarm tactics of Robert Moses, Walter O'Malley was stifled in his efforts to build a new stadium for the Dodgers. Next stop, California.
