@DonovanKasp@VinnysCorner1 Glad you listened him. Sat next to him in a class at Western Michigan University. The prof took attendance. Always mispronounced his name, “Smange?”
@woodwardsports@Lions@CoachKerryon Young man had no tread left after Auburn ran him to death. Loved the player, but knew he wouldn’t last long in the NFL
Tommy Hearns 🆚 Roberto Durán
June 1984 in Las Vegas, Nevada 🇺🇸
‼️ ****Malice in the Palace**** ‼️
Of all the 9 fights between the 4 Kings
This was the only savage beat down 😤
The Hitman’s 2 round demolition job 🥊
- imo coldest KO in Boxing history 🥶
Marco Jiménez is 26 and hasn’t been above High-A, but he’s the hardest thrower in Detroit’s system, and he also has a pretty nice slider. He strikes out the side in the 8th on just 12 pitches.
My 10 favorite boxers of all time:
Muhammad Ali
George Foreman
Sugar Ray Leonard
Thomas Hearns
Roberto Duran
Archie Moore
Larry Holmes
Marvin Hagler
Willie Pep
Oscar De La Hoya
@MNTwinsZealot Didn’t realize that Tretiak struggled so much prior to the game against the U.S. Two of those goals are soft. The unscreened blue line slapper is similar to Buzz Schneider’s goal. Somewhat understand why they pulled him for Myshkin against the U.S.
OTD in 1980 Canada nearly topples the Soviet Union at Lake Placid. Up 1-0 and then 3-1 the USSR storms back to win 6-4. The Soviets scored 3 goals in 25 seconds quickly erasing any thoughts of an upset…
@musicman495@Roger774501171 Recall the story of Gates unexpectedly being called to pinch hit. Was eating a hot dog on the beach. He put the hot dog in his back pocket, slid into 2nd after hitting a double, and had mustard stains across the back of his pants.
@Roger774501171 Gates Brown. From Jackson, Michigan state prison to 1968 World Series Champion. Gates still holds the American League record of 107 pinch hits and 16 pinch-hit home runs.
When you think of pinch hitters what name pops up first . I have a few , there is quite a bit , so feel free to add and I’ll start.

The Who performed at the Isle of Wight Festival on East Afton Farm, Isle of Wight, England on August 29th, 1970
The festival was held from August 26th to 30th, which attracted an estimated 600,000 attendees, featuring artists like Joni Mitchell, Jimi Hendrix and The Doors
@OleTimeHardball Lou took a backseat to no 2nd baseman during the course of his career. Hall of Fame level stats, an elite WAR, and part of the best double play combo ever. A travesty he’s not already in the H of F and ridiculous how he’s treated by the Senior Committee.
