The St. Louis Browns (Cardinals) were owned in the late 19th century by a robust German Bar owner who knew nothing of the game. Once he had a meeting with all the owners in 1891 to show off his new park, "Gentleman he said as they walked on the field, may I show you the worlds biggest infield?"
In 1893 to capilatize on the new Bicycle craze, NL owners meet to discuss inserting slanted race tracks around the perimeter of the fields to make some extra bucks.
The First Tractor Pulls?
I saw a cow this morning
He said to tell you all hello
"All I wanna do is go the distance. Nobody's ever gone the distance with Creed, and if I can go that distance, you see, and that bell rings and I'm still standin', I'm gonna know for the first time in my life, see, that I weren't just another bum from the neighborhood."
--Rocky Balboa
Confession time:
I had a dream last night that the Reds traded for Randy Johnson, and that he was going to pitch for the Reds the next night, against the Cardinals. At the game, which I attended, Johnson pitched for two innings, and then (get this) was traded to the Cardinals mid-game. The Cardinals then pulled their starter and put Johnson on the mound, and he went on to shut out the Reds for the rest of the game.
Pretty sad dream, huh?
Rocky had come equipped with a gun
To shoot off the legs of his rival
His rival it seems had broken his dreams
By stealing the girl of his fancy.
Her name was Magil and she called herself Lil
But everyone knew her as Nancy.
Now she and her man who called himself Dan
Were in the next room at the hoe down
Rocky burst in and grinning a grin
He said Danny boy this is a showdown
But Daniel was hot-he drew first and shot
And Rocky collapsed in the corner.
Now the doctor came in stinking of gin
And proceeded to lie on the table
He said Rocky you met your match
And Rocky said, Doc it's only a scratch
And I'll be better I'll be better doc as soon as I am able.
That would qualify on all counts as a nightmare Rosie ;)

Red Leader's a Dead fan, that's grounds for immediate disqualification.
(Who else can I poke in the eye..)
And Unassisted's from Texas, don't even let me go there.
Who is winning the word battle, cause most of Krono's posts are just padding posts.
I have much more verbiage (while admittedly saying very little)
Is verbiage even a word?Quote:

Yeah, keep them to yourself!! Cause I know lots of words (of course I can never spell them so I have to google them and then I not only get the correct spelling but also verification that they are indeed words). :RedinDC:Quote:

Rin Tin Tin was a fine looking dog.
At this rate, Krono's not even going to get on the page where I suggested we surrender. In that case, maybe we shouldn't! :evil:

I'm watching a travel channel show about how to make peanut butter.
Did you know that it takes 850 peanuts to make one 16oz jar of peanut butter
jmcclain19 should be happy with the new ranking!
Too bad there aren't any good things to make out of 850 peanut shells... or are there?Quote:
