Some may know me as GormansTapRoom on that other site. Records. Movies. Baseball cards. 2nd grade spelling bee champ. Does an above average Randy “Macho Man” Savage impression.
Any day you get to watch some Nique highlights is a good day.
December 19, 1987: Atlanta's Dominique Wilkins with a double-pump slam past Utah's Mark Eaton.
Wilkins had 46 PTS (19-34 FG)/7 REB/4 STL and John Battle had 27 PTS/6 AST off the bench in the Hawks' 130-124 double overtime win. Karl Malone had 31 PTS/17 REB/5 STL for the Jazz.

Spot on. Ryan Braun is a POS & I’m saying that as a Brewers fan since the early 80s. That ryanbraunforever movement on that other site was ridiculous. And to those who say he’s sorry, he’s sorry because he got caught. He repaired his image to feed his own ego.
The easiest NO for me on the ballot, and it wasn’t even close.
I’d toss a courtesy vote to a one-and-done guy before I’d consider Braun, and I don’t understand the mental gymnastics one has to do justify voting for him.

Is it wrong to be a Packer fan, yet openly root for the demise of the NFL?
I attended the annual CTE Gala in Boston last Thursday and was taken aback by the fact that the NFL had no official representation. The only representation was in people related to those who had died and then donated their brains.

I'd love for each member of that voting committee to stand in front of a camera and say, "why yes, I would've much rather had Jeff Kent's career than Dale Murphy or Don Mattingly's. Kent is who, if I were putting a team together, I'd rather have than Murphy or Mattingly."

I was 7 years old when the Packers traded for JJ. I thought he was the coolest guy on Earth. Of course, as a kid, I had no idea that his time in GB did not live up to the hype.
I talked to Lynn Dickey a few months ago. He told me that he wished the Packers had featured Phil Epps more on offense.

The fact that Trump is calling Mace and Boebert today pleading with them to remove their names from the Epstein petition at the last minute tells you everything you need to know about how incriminating the info in the files is to him and his cronies.
