    Willie Mays

    Forever Tigers radio man Ernie Harwell would visit nursing homes to cheer up the inmates.

    Ernie was chatting with an old fellow and asked him "do you know who I am?" The fellow replied "No, but if you can't remember, the nurse over their will tell you."

    I'll also never forget when Mike Tyson ate Evander Holyfield's ear. Most people don't realize that Tyson actually had two packs of barbeque sauce tucked away in his trunks, that he was planning to use on Holyfield's ear, but never got the chance to use them.

    I saw it too.

    Refrained from commenting.

    Didn't want to embarrass CS.

    At least he double posted in the right thread. :p

    I hope he remembers to take his bike on his next bike ride.

    Ted Williams and maybe Bill Mazeroski.

    In the fall of 1960, when I was in the 6th grade, my friends and I were all for the Pirates mainly because we didn't like the Yankees. His walk-off homerun in the 9th inniing of the seventh game of the World Series was "Our shot heard around the world."

    Mays. Nobody ever like him. 1962 Fan Appreciation Day. The Stick.
    Next five years. Nobody moved when he walked up to the plate. Signed for the kids during batting practice.

    Gary Radunich. My next door neighbor in San Jose. Scores 28 points in the first half in the high school all-star game & says I'll sit the second half so other guys can get to shoot. Sportscaster Bay Area.
    Glicker, only 9 posts this thread. Why so few? Got the flu or something? I'd expect 15+

    Have a nice day
