C,
Maris was a guy who didn't exactly fit the "New York" style of player. He was quiet, timid, and kept to himself. Showed little emotion. He was a player every manager wants bc he shuts up and plays. He was a player the press would eat bc he spoke so seldomly. I agree with you Cure. The chair, yes it was.
Tiger stadium? The old tiger stadium. Where 444 was the centerfield wall. That's a shot ladies and gentleman.
As for Canseco, poor guy. Ever see the movie with Kevin Costner, "For Love of The Game"? That happens to a rightfielder as well. Think it had anything to do with Jose? In the movie, the guy redeemed himself. jose is yet to on the field. Tell you a good story about Canseco;
My pop was one of the original Blue Jays. We go up every year for 2 weeks hang out, party, and bullshit with all the older players and guys who are up in the show now. This story is about 5 years old;
We were looking around the Sky Dome and found the gym. Peaked in and there was Canseco, who is a big guy. Not really big but decent size. Working out with 3 plates (315) on flat, for reps. A rookie who just got called up walked in the gym anbd asked Jose if he could jump in. Jose said, "Sure kid, if you can handle it". All cocky, shrugging his shoulders and looking at my father while saying so. The kid gets down, ready, asks for a lift off and BOOM! Right to the chest. Kid had no chance or business lifting that much. Jose picked it up, bar row style, and said, "Kid, looks like you bit off more than you can chew. Welcome to the show"! We laughed for a long time man. We still do today when we rehash the memory. Just thought you would appreciate it.

Hey brainiac!!! We were right...
Kirk Gibson
In Game 1 of the 1988 World Series, the Dodgers leader hobbled to the plate as a pinch hitter in the bottom of the ninth, and blasted a two-run shot off A's reliever Dennis Eckersley to give the Dodgers a 5-4 victory. Good thing Gibson hit a homer -- his knee was in such bad shape he was unable to swing the bat the day before, and he could barely walk. "We weren't worried about him having to run," Dodgers outfielder Mickey Hatcher said. "Hopefully, he can wheelchair it to first, and we can do something from there." Gibson didn't play again in the Series.
We should get some karma for your blatant lies!!!
Well I stand corrected. I got my info from a video I bought from National Record Mart like 12 years ago called "Great Sports Moments of the 80's". Don't blame me. It's that damn Al Michaels fault.

No fucking shit! What are you writting an autobiography of my life? You must like me a lot homo, do you want to date me or some shit?
It amazes me that you think a 9 year old wouldn't be effected by the outcome of a world series. Did you not see Dusty Baker's 3 year old bat boy crying his eyes out after SF lost the series! I didn't cry or nothing when the shit happened with Buckner, but I still leaves a bad taste in my mouth everytime I hear about it or it's brought up. Now FAWK OFF!!!

I would like to know why this thread has not been moderated over to the Professional and Collegiate Sports board. 
I mean, talk about hypocrisy!!!! How come whenever someone posts something about boobs it automatically gets moved to the Between the Sheets board? But this blatant sports related thread stays in Chat?? Where the fuck are the mods??
I feel sooooooo violated.....so dirty.
