  1. They are the best. Had Ryu not faltered for awhile during the mid season, he might have won it. MLB is now looking into the 2018 and 2019 postseason for possibilities of cheating.
  2. I haven’t been down there in a couple of months so next week is a good time to go, probably Thursday. Can you pm me what you want.
  3. It took me about a third of the book to appreciate it. Then I couldn’t put it down.
  4. Unusual book about an Israeli harpist sho returns home to see if her mother will move into a retirement home and to pass the time she becomes an extra in movies and tv. However, is she an extra in her family’s life, an extra to her ex-husband or even an extra to the symphony in the Netherlands she plays for.
  5. Picked it up when Ken had his sale
  6. I believe the Mets GM (who had no experience in baseball other than as an agent) ordered pitching changes this year. It caused a controversy when it was disclosed he was ordering these moves.
  7. Sounds like the Mets but it also describes the current theory of management in baseball.
  8. He’s becoming the Adam Gase of baseball.
  9. Has any title ever been vacated in pro sports because of cheating? Not that I can recall (not that I’ve carried out any exhaustive research). It seems evident that the 1951 Giants had an elaborate sign stealing system that may have helped them win the pennant although Bobby Thomson claimed he never knew what was coming in the climactic at bat but the Giants never suffered any repercussions when their system was disclosed years later.
  10. The Studebaker paid off today. My record dealer found me a copy of Spencer Davis’ Greatest Hits but he hadn’t had a chance to grade it. I popped it on today and sounded terrible: lot of pops, etc. Ran it through the washer and they were all gone!
  11. I saw it again recently. Think it was on TCM. Still a hoot.
  12. It’s an under appreciated Mosaic.
  13. Brief discussion on Hoffmann. https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/for-the-love-of-tip-on-jackets.634346/
  14. Pm sent on the Sweets Edison Lockjaw set.

    Yes, I read that, too. Shame it’s become public but I guess with personalities it’s inevitable.

    Allegedly, he cut his wife out of his will days before he died because he said she abandoned him.
  17. Isn’t stolen bandwidth or hosting a photo cost money? Not being facetious, just asking as I don’t know the answer.
  18. Yes, that’s probably true. However, there is so many other wonderful things to see there that if that’s all you focus on, yes, you may be disappointed. The Delacroix are something special.
