No. I was speaking of the other post. But since you went off on Ted for "being wrong", when in fact he wasn't, couldn't you just say: "Sorry Ted. I didn't realize they issued them in 1973. I picked mine up in 1976 at the "new" Stadium opening." ? |

Bruce's posts are grating but he is not going to change and most of the board understands that. There's no need to keep going after him every time he posts. |

OK, Jim. I'm not going to argue any longer. There was no "tone" in my original comment. I can see how it could have been misinterpreted, though. And I disagree with you about Jeff's comments, but so be it. |

Geesh, if we're doing full disclosure here, I was an "A" student all the way through Calc I. I immediately "got" Basic Statistics and Inferential Stat. After that, I was dead in the water. As soon as it got more theoretical and less practical, I was clueless. |

Yes Jim, the many benefits of being a baseball nut! If only baseball could have somehow helped me with mitosis, cytoplasm, molecules, etc. I still don't know what a damn mole is! And I wouldn't understand it even if someone explained it to me! |

I remember as a kid, when I used to keep stats in my Strat-O-Matic league, that the Sporting News published a book that gave batting averages for virtually every possible combination of hits and at bats. So if I guy had 70 hits in 223 at bats, you would go to the 70 column and the 223 row and it would read .314. It was called "Batting Averages at a Glance." Did anyone else have that? |

David's 100% correct. A good pesticide to kill the grubs will usually force the moles to move on. Be sure to stick with a selective pesticide that will not harm beneficial insects and earthworms! |

It brings this Jays fan joys to see the Yanks and Sox stumble out of the gates. I know it won't last long but the Jays are doing well and Halladay is 3-0. (Halladay is imho the best pitcher in the game today) |

"By the way David, not to be argumentative, but moles don't eat roots, they are insectivores. they eat the grubs that eat the roots. You're thinking of voles or gophers." |

Sandy- the two years I played Strat-O-Matic were 1964 and 1965. Once during that time I came home with a bad report card and my parents took the game away until my grades improved. True story. |

I have talked to people who went to the Yankee museum and I took a tour of it via the telecast and I must say, they put $1.5 Billion into this carnival and gave the visitors a rather shabby museum. The ball wall is a total joke. Below the Babe Ruth ball, is an Ian Kennedy??? They have basically "two" staples...Ruth and a personalized side panel Gehrig? You would expect a franchise with such a tradition to give us more of a history (memorabilia wise) like uniforms, historic items and such. I'm sure they could get people to donate stuff. |

"I believe there is some disparity as to who that song was written about. Joan Baez has claimed it was written about her, while others maintain it was written with one of Dylan's other former lovers in mind (either Suze Rotolo or Sara Dylan--I forget). I don't recall ever reading Dylan's take on the subject. Knowing him, he likely remains ambiguous!" |

That's right, too, David. It WAS Sara. Sorry--outside of "Blood on the Tracks", my taste (and, therefore, knowledge) of Dylan's ouvre predates 1970. |

Mine basically predates 1966. As far as I'm concerned Dylan reached his peak with Blonde on Blonde. |

I nearly agree with you on that. In my mind, his greatest accomplishment rests solely on Bringing it all Back Home . The concept of having an acoustic A-side coupled with an electric B-side has been copied ad nauseum by countless artists, most successfully IMHO by Dylan devotee Neil Young (with his classic Rust Never Sleeps ). "It's Alright, Ma" might be the greatest lyric ever conceived. Even 44 years after the fact, it fails to lose resonance. |

I would have to say Blood On The Tracks is post-66 but excellent IMO. Occasionally, there's a lot of "Idiot Wind" blowing around these parts. |
