bill,

spot on. really was a tragedy and worthy of much more recognition. much more! most just love him for his name, i love his entire story. i mean the guy got completely ran over by a truck at age 3 and just kept on going!! a truck, at 3! ...and 245 strikeouts in your rookie year? hot damn! well worth the time to read a lil on him.

as for the mcdougald line drive, such a class act that he didn't even finish running to first and ran straight to the mound instead. he was reportedly so overcome w/ guilt that he considering retiring if score woulda lost his eyesight. either just wouldn't happen in today's game.

jb,

as for the cowboy, ALR and Todd nailed it. it is indeed andy devine...good call!!! but i am young, sorta. and i know who he is! ; )

cb,

nice aaron rook. centering is great!
