vmax Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 So long Earl. 82 years is a great run. As the saying goes...those were the days. Growing up, Earl Weaver, the O's and Memorial stadium....and championships and baseball excellence. Great pitching, great defense and the long ball.

BengalBilly Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 A great manager has passed. I liked him since the days the Reds and the Orioles played in the 1970 World Series. I'm still a bit miffed Baltimore won that series though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BengalBilly Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 The Human Vacum Cleaner is why the Reds lost I haven't forgotten Brooks Robinson either. The plays he made were simply amazing, and you have to have an arm to throw from 3rd base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BengalBilly Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I think we're really dating ourselves here. That series happened almost 43 years ago. i still vivdly remember it, yet i'm walking around the house looking for where I put down my car keys two hours ago.

BengalBilly Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Baseball history is passing before our eyes. Now former Cardinal Stan Musial has passed as well. Stan the man was a bit before my time, but he was an all time great baseball player. R.I.P. Stan. **I didn't want to start a new thread** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
