Well, that title is one way to get a lot of views... I'm very relieved that the pics were "baseball-related".

Nice ball, and great condition. I'm sure someone here can help to pinpoint the vintage. Great pickup!

Better to have 1 ball, then to be half-cocked.






Alright I've officially bottomed out.

An example of a very inappropriate title that is humorous enough to the point that the censor has just gotta laugh and turn the other way.

Looks like your creativity worked ! But have you no shame! Looks to me like you sold your "cock" on the B/S/T...

I once knew a gentlemen who had to have a testicle removed after a slow pitch softball injury. For years afterwards he delighted in telling people he was "half nuts."

Not to minimize the serious nature of what happened to the gentleman, but there are better things a guy can do with his testicle...

Here's where they probably got the name from. The Andean Cock of the Rock. Native to Peru.
