Who knew that Scal played for the Reds in the 90's (or was this the 80's)?

Yup

That's a 1988 Topps.

And no, I didn't realize Scal was a two-sport star! ;D

I guess the storm knocked a bunch of people off the internet this morn

I was walking home yesterday in the rain storm, and the umbrella obviously wasn't working due to the winds (welp), but then as I'm walking (with a lot of trees nearby) and am close to my apartment, a whole tree branch (really really big)made a loud crack and fell to my right, on someone's driveway (thankfully empty), but after that I got kind of scared seeing all the trees above me and half ran-half jogged home (it was a horrendous experience) :P

I didn't care if any drivers thought I looked weird/crazy just running/jogging in the storm  :P

Like I love snow and would love walking through a snowy scene, but rain storms... ugh.

I'm hoping to meet long time poster ACF in Copenhagen tonight for beer or something. If you don't hear from me well within 24 hours he has kidnapped me. I'm serious.

Tell him GreenFaith says Hi! and wish him well.

I was going to put out an APB on you, Eja, if you hadn't updated this thread. I was going to get Tom Brady to offer his assistance as well. ;D

I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

You guys didn't offer enough money.  We both had hamburger steaks with a fried egg on top.

It was way cool saying hello, Mr. Alexander.

Nyheim Hines of the NFL might become the next Junior Bridgeman.

https://www.yahoo.com/sports/rookie-colts-rb-nyheim-hines-worked-bojangles-bye-week-due-retirement-plan-025701803.html

For those that don't know, Junior Bridgeman is thought to be the 2nd richest NBA player of all time behind only Michael Jordan.  Worth more than Magic, LeBron, Shaq, etc.  Many never heard of him, solid yet unspectacular career in the 70's and 80's.

He opened 3 Wendy's during his career, working at them during the offseason, ended up with more than 160 (along with a bunch of Chili's too), until he recently sold them to take over other businesses (Coca-Cola bottling).

I've heard Bridgeman tell stories about how people would see him working at his Wendy's, and thought he wasted all his money so that's why he was working fast food.

Maybe Nyheim Hines is on the same track, working at Bojangles with plans right now to open at least 5 of them.

Always think this stuff is super cool.

After 18 months with their Bigs, the Littles were: 46% less likely to use illegal drugs, 27% less likely to use alcohol, 52% less likely to skip school, 37% less likely to skip a class
