  1. The people I knew just read the box scores in the paper, preferably the afternoon paper, which would have the west coast games too. When I was a kid, I used to study the box scores every day. On Sunday, the N.Y. Times had complete batting and pitching records of every player who had a minimum number of at bats or had pitched a minimum number of innings. I probably spent more time with those figures than I did doing homework for school. Then I discovered music and baseball stats went on the back burner.

  13. People can post any opinion they want on Amazon. Amazon opinions/reviews may or may not have any foundation. A strength and a weakness of democracy.

  17. It seems it's always that way - and not just for television.
  18. I'm not trolling, and I bring up a very valid point. If you have no sympathy for those he infected, then it's you who have some integrity issues. And yes, I know promiscuity runs rampant in b-ball. Shawn Kemp: 12 kids from 11 women. D'oh! And fwiw, Magic was one of my favorite players during my childhood. I fully and happily recognize his greatness as an athlete. That does not excuse his indiscretions. Sorry. One cannot grow up in NYC and NOT be a basketball fan. WHOA, Now you are again making assumptions. No one knows if he infected anyone else other than the contact he had that infected him. Remember his wife and kid were not infected and he had a loving (on whatever level) relationship with her. When the Magic/HIV news broke, supposedly the women he had sexual contact with were tested and none tested positive, except for the woman who infected him. She later died. If there were wmoen infected by Magic, there would have been lawsuits and new stories. That didn't happen. I'm not defending whatever Magic did, but let's not put stuff out there that can't be backed up.

  20. Bizarre one! Should be included in an anthology of sick country recordings.
  21. I know, it's like living in a sports bar w/o the lame idiots screaming in your ear. Better bar too... Sometimes I'm the lane idiot screaming in my ear.
