they are probably one and the same.


This reminds me of the spongebob episode "one krab's trash" where mr. krabs pays dearly for spongebob's soda drink hat because it's extremely rare and valuable only to have it become worthless when a whole cache of the same soda drink hat is discovered

But it would depend on how many other relatives are out there. Who all is due to inherit this stuff? Of course it would depend on how many children the guy had, and all that. The article may of been poorly worded. It made it seem as if this guy is walking away with these cards and claiming them as his own.

The ground-ball curve, though? The buckets average 600 innings and are closer to half the size of the “all” curve in most spots, and there are no missing ages. It certainly looks like James was right: right around 30 years old, ground-ball guys start to age worse. They add four runs to their peak RA/9 two years earlier than the average pitcher. The attrition is much worse, too: between 32 and 34 years old, 34% of all innings pitched leave the game, while 74% of all innings pitched by plus ground-ball pitchers disappear.

What the hell is a bucket?

I might make that part of my repetoire (sp.).
Teams lie, sometimes for good reasons, sometimes for bad. They do it to get an advantage while they look at the trade market or just because they can

I love stuff like that. You can find a treasure about anywhere.

Some kid must have been a big Ty Cobb fan. Apparently they were the only cards in the bag?

That's a clown logo, bro.

this made me think of those "from the future" jerseys from like 97 or 98 that looked like something off of triple play or the n64 griffey game

Tim Welke is retiring. Had his left knee replaced two months ago and is getting his right one done in June
