@nut_history Ric Flair was cool as hell and took pictures with everyone who wanted one but I mostly remember how disgusting it was watching him chew and spit tobacco into a cup all night long

They say “never meet your heroes” well, have you met yours? Talking about an athlete or celebrity here

@nut_history Just scrolled through a lot of answers without seeing Shavar Ross aka Dudley from Dif'rent Strokes. Shame on all of you. Tsk tsk

@FoolishBB I want a "5 players I am completely neutral on" where you pick guys that you believe will be exactly league average 100 WRC+ or 100 ERA+

Those will come out starting at the beginning of March. The order is 5 Pitchers I Like, 5 Hitters I Like, and then 5 Players I Dislike. Three of those five players I dislike will be pitchers (two starters + one reliever).

When was the last time you bought a jersey(not from Temu or the other sites that make $20 jerseys) of an active player? Who was that player?

@ryanarey If the creatures were all based on D&D monsters then why didn't they go from Indiana up to Wisconsin, kick Gary Gygax in the balls and ask why he did this to them.

Other than Griffey Jr., who had the best batting swing in your lifetime?

@nut_history Dusty at least makes a mound visit, if not a bullpen call, earlier in Game 6 NLDS 2003.

You have a magic wand and can go back in time and change anything you want to make your baseball fan enjoyment better (and alter history), what would you change?

@TheCaseFor The fact that his fellow players haven't already voted him in is what bugs me the most. The writers have proven their ineptness over and again but his contemporaries? They knew how great he was and still haven't opened the door? Seriously guys? So dumb and so sad

Game one was awful. No way to sugarcoat it BUT, a few positives: 1. Home runs are still being hit 2. Civale masterclass. Saved the bullpen 3. Win game 2 and you’re even headed back home

When I say “took way too long to get inducted in the baseball hall of fame” who’s the first player you think of?

@Sut_40 That voting always ticked me off. First when it happened and even more in retrospect. Younger fans don't realize just how elite you were at the time and a second Cy Young would've gone a long way in changing that

I lost what would’ve been a 2nd Cy to a reliever in 1987 because our Chicago beat writer couldn’t vote for an MVP Dawson and a Cy me for a last place team. He voted for Hawk but not even a 3rd place vote for me? BS
Jayson Stark@jaysonst

No reliever has won a Cy Young or MVP award in 22 years. In fact they barely get a vote for this stuff. So why did the BBWAA create a Relief Pitcher of the Year award? I wrote a column to explain it. Let's just say ... It's about time nytimes.com/athletic/65712…

Absolutely baffled to find out that @StaterBrosMkts no longer carries bread. $5 a loaf name brand? Sure. But the affordable regular white/wheat they've had for my 20 years going there? Nope. Not anymore. I'm not expecting to still pay .79 for it but getting rid of it? Seriously?

It's actually a big deal for the WH to admit that Trump is having health issues. It's a departure from the usual North Korea style "the president can rip phone books in half while running a marathon backwards" obnoxious praise.
Andrew Feinberg@AndrewFeinberg

JUST IN: @PressSec says @realDonaldTrump has been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, which explains the swollen ankles documented in recent photos. She also says the bruising on his hand is from handshakes and side effects from taking aspirin.
