We had some fun awhile back with this thread and it deserves a return engagement.I'll start it off and dedicate this list to MRP. A Yankee Fan's List of Red Sox Players He Has Admired (no particular order)
1-Dustin Pedroia-as does Mariano Rivera 2-Carl Yastrzemski-needed help with the spelling 3-Oil Can Boyd-What a loon 4-Sparky Lyle-traded to the Yanks and became a Cy Young winner 5-Babe Ruth-sold to the Yanks and..... 6-Wade Boggs-signed by the Yanks and helped win the 1996 World Series 7-Bill "Spaceman" Lee-a man I would want to party with 8-Carlton Fisk-I already told you about him and Deion "Primetime'Sanders 9-Jimmy Piersall-I liked the movie Fear Strikes Out 10-Johnny Damon-signed by the Yanks and helped win the 2009 World Series Hadn't checked out this thread yet, but in the interests of your good sportsmanship, Ish, may an enthusiast of the Carmine Hose return the gesture? 1. The Babe (Of course. He transcends all.) 2. Mickey Mantle (A force of nature who was always likable on the field) 3. Tony Kubek (Solid ballplayer, great announcer) 4. Mariano Rivera (His smile and wave of the cap at the 2005 ring ceremony were the epitome of class) 5. Lou Piniella (Would've loved having him on my team) 6. Yogi Berra (Such a great guy, and a helluva player) 7. Phil Rizzuto (Blood type: P for pinstripes) 8. Bernie Williams (Classy off and on the field) 9. Jim Bouton (The hat flying off and Ball Four) 10. Hank Bauer (A pro's pro, and a tough guy)! |

Favorite Barry White Songs
Practice What You Preach
I'll Do For You Anything You Want Me To
Can't Get Enough of Your Love Babe
My First, My Last, My Everything
What Am I Gonna Do With You
I was at my wife's family reunion in our hotel room watching the Fourth of July Twilight Zone marathon when my wife came into the room and told me that it was announced Barry White had died. I did just like my signature says ... I went from drinking celebration of Twilight Zone, to drinking to forget something bad just happened.

Yeah, I still like AC/DC even though they seem to write the same song over and over again.
