  • Yes, the Nero Leagues were an unjustly overlooked era in baseball, though the Hall of Fame has been working on that.

  • The hard stuff.  It always comes down to that.  A gateway ice cream, just a little vanilla, or maybe strawberry, what's the harm, right?  Then comes a "friend" letting you try some Gold Medal Ribbon "

It better have been then, otherwise he would have looked ridiculous in a blue leisure suit!

85 - it was the later pastel era influenced by pretty in pink and Miami Vice -- so at least there was not the ruffled shirt.  Although now that I think about it -- the suit had been my brothers which he wore to prom in 1980, and my mom took in some of the 70's style flair from the pant legs.  The girls all had a lot of lace bows and gloves as influenced by early Madonna.  I suspect the pictures probably do not look timeless and look a little dated.  We were not quite as put together or styled as much as the prom kids today, which is probably not a bad thing.

It was actually a fairly decent three piece suit -- just with a color you could only wear to a prom.

 

My first communion suit -- was a leisure suit (a checked leisure suit) my Mom made.  Complete with a yellow polyester shirt with a pretty big collar.

It is a toss up between who looks worse in the outfield between Delmon and Arcia.

Argh.

Squeeze, Brian, squeeze.

Nick Burdi coming on for the Miracle.  Inheriting 2 runners on, 2 outs in the top 7th.  Still 3-0.

Schweet.

Squeeze, Brian, squeeze.

Ok... It's Dead... What do you want me to do next?

Okay ... going into the top 8th ... still 3-0.

Ricky's high-wire act continues here in the fifth.  He's been worse.

Sometime this winter I'm going to calculate his percentage of "1-2-3" innings.  It has to be pretty bad.

Ugh. 2 hours in and we're not even halfway through the game. If I was at home I'd be passing out on the couch...

If you set the over/under at "0", I'll take the the over.  Any number bigger than that, I'm not sure.

Ricky's at a tidy 97 pitches through 5.  Pretty happy to be tied at 3, given this.  Even happier that Hicks stung a ball last inning.

Gladden just called Nolasco a "Latin" in speculating he might work well with Pinto...

If I put it at 0.5 per game, I think it becomes a tough call.

Bottom 8th, bases loaded, no outs ... stay posted

Hey teekz, that guy passed out on your couch is RB, so don't call the cops.  He'll leave after his nap.

Many latin descendents of the late Emperor Nero era settled in the Orange County area, and you know how the Romans loved baseball.
