Obvious...............but Gus Zernial was my favorite player growing up outside Philly in the early '50's. You couldn't find another A's fan as everyone was a Phillies fan!

I took mine from a character in the movie Last Starfighter - a favorite of mine as a kid. Also, I post on several internet sites, and the name is not common.

Back in the early days of the internet, I needed a screen name for AOL instant messenger. In all my 13 year old wisdom, I picked my two favorite baseball players (Chipper Jones and Hank Aaron) and combined their names. To follow the popular form, at least among my friends, I needed a number on the end. Hank Aaron's 44 was the natural choice.

Due to budget constraints, I collect vintage cards in low grade, hence I thought my username was fitting...
