I have no idea how Cookie made it there. I'd rather see Byrd and Schobel up there than Cookie and Simpson.

Major League Baseball retired his No. 42 on the 50th anniversary. Since then, no one on any ballclub wears it – except for today, on Robinson Day, when everyone does. The time has come for the Buffalo Bills to honor their 42, too. Butch Byrd, who wore that number in the 1960s, still holds the franchise record for career interceptions, with 40. And he returned a punt 74 yards for a touchdown in the 1965 American Football League title game, which remains the last time the Bills won a league championship. Byrd’s name and number belong on the Bills Wall of Fame. Of course they do. That they aren’t there already is hard to believe. No Byrd? Absurd. “I hope it will come someday,” he says. “I don’t want to sound conceited, but I think I had a pretty good career.” Byrd pauses. “I’d like not to have to make it posthumously.” Traditionally, Wall of Fame honorees have been chosen by a panel of team personnel and select media members. The committee has not met since Cookie Gilchrist was chosen as the 31st member in 2017, and there are no meetings scheduled. The future of the Wall of Fame is unknown as the Bills begin their transition to a new stadium. Byrd played in Buffalo for seven seasons, 1964 through 1970. His franchise record for interceptions stands the test of time. He returned five of those 40 for touchdowns and made the AFL All-Star team five times. Then there is that game-breaking punt return against the San Diego Chargers in 1965. Byrd remembers every step of it. “Oh yeah, absolutely. John Hadl punted. I was back with Ed Rutkowski. I caught it and took two steps to my left. Ed put a block on the gunner, and I reversed field to the right. I had the sideline, and then Paul Maguire knocked down the last two guys and I was in. That’s how it happened. It was over in a flash.”

We spend just as much, unfortunately. But we're not dirty bastards.

There ain't no good guy, there ain't no bad guy. There's only you and me and we just disagree.

I liked her more before ... when she went by Kathy Ireland. Poser.

Very cool. DVD is $18 on Amazon ... https://www.amazon.com/Louder-Than-Love-Grande-Ballroom/dp/B01DA9Q6SC

Wouldn't it be easier/more fun to set up a Zoom meeting and do rock/paper/scissors?

It really is an amazing list. Borderline mind-blowing. Boggles my mind how it went to sh*t so quickly. Very sad.

Pretty sure it was after his fake foot injury that "kept him" out of the game in London. Bum.

It's also the root of my deep hatred for the Dodgers.

Be happy he's pitching (unlike deGrom)!

Poorly worded on my part. I meant winning 20 of his starts; not necessarily him getting 20 wins.

Yes. That is not an approved combination. And I am with you 100%. I love red on white.

Bah. Bah. Bahhhhh

Only if they're baked.

A 37-year-old Matt Ryan doesn't instill much fear into me; nor does a 32-year-old Gilmore.

I hate the Dodgers more than I hate al Qaeda. But I've always loved Kershaw. I think the guy is an absolute beast. I agree with the knock on his historical post-season stats. But "soft," is the last word I'd associate him with, myself. Not gonna drag you for your opinion; There ain't no good guy, there ain't no bad guy; there's only you and me and we just disagree.

So I'm back to the velvet underground Back to the floor that I love To a room with some lace and paper flowers Back to the gypsy that I was To the gypsy that I was

My gut reaction was, "what a bunch of bull####." But this is a guy who the Dodgers are probably counting on winning 20-ish games when he pitches. He has to stay healthy in order for that to happen. He's old. He's injury prone. Abbreviated spring training. And ... yes ... analytics have pretty much replaced actual in-game management. Listening to the Mets announcers, they made it sound like it was a mutual decision. That Kershaw knew he couldn't go all the way. That makes sense to me. My guess is that if this was their 4th or 5th starter, or some spot starter, that there would have been no pitch count. That simply wasn't the case here. And it wasn't really even a no-hitter.

Carr is better than Lamar Jackson and Russell Wilson, IMO. And how is Watson in the bottom tier? What has Trevor Lawrence done to not warrant being in the bottom tier?
