Mickey Mantle 1956 - While the most common nickname for Mantle was "The Mick", he did go by "The Commerce Comet". Commerce because that was the name of his hometown in Oklahoma, and comet cause he was so damn fast. In his career, he hit 6 inside-the-park home runs, 3 of them in 1958 Photo Source - Time Magazine (@TIME) Photographer - Ralph Morse

@MrWhite1079 @NatesNukes THAT and him saying it constantly, like ALL THE TIME

@OTBaseballPhoto @NatesNukes That’s your reason for Jack loving NJ? I guess Quinn loves NJ as well and won’t be re-signing in Minnesota? Right?

The second Quinn Hughes re-signs in Minny, if I’m Sunny Metha, I pick up the phone & offer both brothers to Bill Guerin. The return would be massive but BG has the opportunity to look like a genius & make Minnesota the face of USA hockey for years to come. #NJDevils #MNWild

@MrWhite1079 @NatesNukes Please don't be an idiot. If Jack doesn't love NJ, then why does he spend his off-seasons at the Jersey Shore? In fact he's been down there with Quinn

@NatesNukes 1- Minny has a boat load of assets 2- The Wild are in a much better position to win in the short or long term than the NJD, who’s a perennial lottery team for about a decade now. 3- Thinking Jack loves NJ is hilarious lol 4- Haven’t you seen players ask for trades recently?

@MNState0fHockey @PrimetimeSamWoo @BiffTannen712 Don't be a douchebag

@PrimetimeSamWoo @BiffTannen712 I am going to make it impossible for you to exist on this platform when he extends. You don’t truly understand what the words relentless and merciless mean.

Can someone send me the link where Dave Pagnotta actually said this? Trying to verify if this was actually said in the first place. I’ll believe it when I see it.

@KrittRTV @matt_NJD They're the same twats that boed Luke unmercifully. Guarantee it

@matt_NJD This fanbase is insufferable sometimes...

Genuinely can’t believe im seeing negative Sunny tweets. People already saying “we didn’t get a top 6 winger” several months before the season It’s July lol give the man some time. If the roster is as-is in October then ya.. Feels naive to believe this roster will be the Game 1 roster

That big Norwegian is a beast

@NotsomuchNah @CardanoAftrDark @NHLRumourReport Why wouldn't they be untouchable? Devils still have Jack at a bargain price for four more years and Luke for six. There is ZERO reason to trade them. Instead of trying to insult my intelligence, how about a tweet with some substance. Give me a reason why we would move them

@OTBaseballPhoto @CardanoAftrDark @NHLRumourReport Then, I don't believe you understand what the full scope of the word untouchable means.

Michael Russo: Re Wild: They have...called on New Jersey’s Jack Hughes — Quinn’s younger brother — although Dylan Larkin is the one they know remains available this offseason - The Athletic (7/2)

@NotsomuchNah @CardanoAftrDark @NHLRumourReport Wait a minute, saying that Jack and Luke are untouchable is being obtuse? Come back to Earth champ

@OTBaseballPhoto @CardanoAftrDark @NHLRumourReport Before I continue to entertain this, are you being obtuse on purpose or is the ignorance legitimate?

@NotsomuchNah @CardanoAftrDark @NHLRumourReport What's a false statement?

@OTBaseballPhoto @CardanoAftrDark @NHLRumourReport Maybe don't start off your premise with a false statement.

@NotsomuchNah @CardanoAftrDark @NHLRumourReport If you're trying to acquire players you know are 100% untouchable, what's the point if you ain't desperate?

@OTBaseballPhoto @CardanoAftrDark @NHLRumourReport Making offers isn't desperation. Unless you're trying to oversell it. Which, you are. Don't build up weird shit in your head. Should get you through your day a bit easier. We also heard Zucc was "pissed" at Guerin. That wasn't true. So, I guess whatever you have to tell yourself

@NotsomuchNah @CardanoAftrDark @NHLRumourReport Then why is Guerin so desperate to trade for the other two?

@CardanoAftrDark @NHLRumourReport Riiiight.

@DewsNewz I think he worked for Homeland Security

Breaking News. There was a murder/suicide in Sayreville NJ. The perp was reportedly a DEA agent.

Back in the old day-we used to have autograph day and all the players would move around the perimeter of the field and sign autographs for the fans. ⁦@RedSox⁩ Too bad that got discontinued. Great for the fans. ⁦@OTBaseballPhoto⁩ @OldSchoolBoston ⁦@MLBNetwork

Cleveland, Ohio, March 14, 1931 - Construction is well underway on one of the first multi-purpose stadiums designed for both baseball and football. It would be known as Cleveland Municipal Stadium, a mammoth ballpark costing $2,500,000 to build along the lakefront, and could hold up to 78,000 for baseball and 83,000 for football. This photo was taken just under nine months after construction was started on June 24, 1930. It would open on July 1, 1931, and two days later, the stadium hosted a Max Schmeling heavyweight fight that drew 37,000. The first Major League baseball game was not until the following year on July 31, 1932, when the Cleveland Indians lost to Lefty Grove and the Philadelphia Athletics 1-0. The inaugural contest drew 80,184, then a Major League record. And there was even a time in the 1930's that the Indians, for several reasons, abandoned the stadium and returned to League Park. But after several years of Cleveland Municipal Stadium sitting mostly deserted, city officials pressured the ball club to return, which they did on a part-time basis, mostly on weekends, while playing during the week at League Park. Finally, they moved into the stadium full-time in 1947, where they stayed till 1993. One big misconception we keep running into is that this huge venue was built with the hopes of winning the bid for the 1932 Olympics. The problem with that thinking is that Los Angeles was awarded the Olympics in 1923, five years before Cleveland Municipal Stadium was approved by voters. -Ron A. Bolton

You guys are so stacked you'll probably win two cups every year!! The best team EVER!! 😂 I don't think there is a team in the history of hockey that could beat your Wild because they're so stacked (especially at center Bahahahaha!!) You and your fandom is boring me. Cheers lol

Literally the only thing Jack has won in his professional career was with Guerin steering the ship. The Wild are stacked with guys like Faber Boldy and kaprisov. Also an incredible 22 year old goalie. Quinn is the best Dman in the nhl. Ya the Wild are a destination right now. Every player in the league would be open to play here. The devils? Not so much.

I hope Sunny can bring Quinn to New Jersey like his former boss bringing Brady to play with his brother. #NJDevils

@trenchwargod @Hockey9ffkfk @PrimetimeSamWoo Your last paragraph is so laughable. The Wild has won one playoff series in the past decade and you got the balls to call anyone else a dumpster fire 😂😂😂 You guys got Guerin on such a ridiculously high pedestal, it's comical. 😆

Has he said that since he was traded to Minnesota? The family including Jack absolutely loves Billy Guerin and believes he is going to do whatever it takes to win. The devils are not close to winning and it’s a dumpster fire frankly. The fans were booing his own brother to tears essentially. It’s like @spittinchiclets said. Jack’s more likely to come to Minny than Quinn to NJ. They can spend their summer wherever they like.

@trenchwargod @Hockey9ffkfk @PrimetimeSamWoo He has said he wants to play with brothers and the easiest path to that is via Jersey, not Minnesota. So you can see why people would say that. Add on to the fact he's been hanging out down the Jersey Shore since the season has ended.

@OTBaseballPhoto @Hockey9ffkfk @PrimetimeSamWoo Ya ya and meanwhile people want to assume the wilds superstar defenseman if destined to leave because they have nothing better to do that stir the pot.
