A show of strength with your boys brigade And I'm so happy and you're so kind You want more money of course I don't mind To buy nuclear textbooks for atomic crimes And the public gets what the public wants But I want nothing this societys got I'm going underground (going underground) ------------------------------------------------------ Happy 40th coming up!!!!! Thank goodness for the UK artists to get me through the 80s....

that was Papillon Soo Soo

and another phase of his career with excellence back in the day...

the Jays contending every year from 1983 to 1993 made it fun even with only one team making the playoffs. my high school and undergrad years, every game is remembered as mattering and watched or listened to

the startup of football season kills a lot of interest unless there is something highly compelling for your baseball team the only year without a decent playoff race in the 7 team AL East was Detroit in 1984 starting off 35-5 and coasting in to a deserved World Series.

well played, I would note the name from Ipswich Town's magic in top levels of English soccer with Bobby Robson, then the cratering for the last 30 years...

the game needs more fans to actually sit there and watch or attend games. i'm back in watching mode, watched the 2 WC games, will tape and watch the 2 today, try to get through the 4 tomorrow (that's pushing things...)

i watch a game a day until football starts, then i pick up again for some playoff series, the Yankees continuing is the best thing for baseball audiences

what do you actually watch as a fan of the game?

Nugent is still around?

Brady's 46 yard completion, the punt block, Brady's INT at the end of a 90 yard cakewalk drive, those were the main points of the game.

Ralph raised his family to know enough to get the ****** out of owning a team.

the game is mostly about a private TV$$$$ deal bringing in billions, and those teams are annually among the playoff contenders Toronto's ownership doesn't pay market for the TV rights, although possibly the richest ownership in North America, so the team is dead from the get-go with a half-effort. the main trouble with today's game is the imbalance in the scheduling, letting teams have an equal right to a WC spot while playing a clearly lower strength of schedule but it's not as though i'm gnashing my teeth over a team losing out on a WC spot

letting teams slack off because of 2 WCs has hurt the value of early games. again the 1980s AL East had seasons where practically every game mattered to the teams, one year the Jays were in first or tied for the first 160 games, then choked it all away

a co-worker's daughter did the Ivy league/Johns Hopkins route to her PhD in astronomy/astrophysics, don't recall her exact specialty nobody that has a clue about this, whose life is dedicated to it, is on here talking about it.

it made for many great entire seasons in the AL East of the 80s, one year 5th finished 3.5 out of first. I enjoyed games meaning something the whole season, instead of hoping to stay around .500 and latch onto a WC spot

the mean comments on here have shattered many a young optimistic QB's faith in himself imagine if the Bills didn't cover last Sunday....

the game doesn't really want more 4-playoff-game days (see tomorrow), they conflict with each other and ad $$$ at least up here they've finally figured out they could put the start of another game on another of the 6 channels if the early game goes past 4 hours

too soon

it was beer and a bump

half the men were Alberts at the engineering school for my undergrad years

As for me and what I think....

he adopted that name on gaining residency? they didn't tell him.... usually they stop at A on the list, so there's a lot of Albert Wangs out there.

Ipswich.... thanks!!! you looked that up, right???

i remember when they put out a monster-list of banned things to screen onto your NFL jersey to wear in public and a dozen of them were the names of players in the league at the time
