Does anyone else think that the cover to the JSA issue with Sandman by Alex Ross has some elements of Dr. Fate on it? The only reason I say that is because the mask and the gloves seem to be gold, just like Fate's mask.

Looking forward to completing my set of the series. Plus, I have only seen like 2 of the season five episodes on TV so it will be new to me.

Smithers, this team will include Cap Anson and Mordecai "3 Finger" Brown.

A couple of points about Jack Morris. First, Vampiro stated his postseason record was 6-1. This is incorrect. His teams had a 6-1 record in postseason series. Morris himself was 7-4. That 1978-1994 comparison is borderline insulting. It takes almost the entirety of Morris's career and compares it to part of Ryan's. 1994 is included when Ryan didn't even play, but 1977 is excluded, when Morris went 1-1 and Ryan won 19 games. They're cherry-picking Nolan Ryan because his win/loss records are not much more impressive than Bert Blyleven's. I drew up a list of pitchers from 1978-94. Six pitchers compiled 3,000 or more innings pitched in that span. Of those pitchers Morris ranks 1st in wins, but 5th in ERA (behind Ryan, Bob Welch, Dennis Martinez and Charlie Hough). Morris ranks 4th in WHIP behind Ryan, Welch and Martinez. Morris lost more games than any pitcher in that period except Frank Tanana. And in Runs Saved Above Average (RSAA), Morris ranks 46th. Dennis Martinez had a 245-194 record, a lower ERA, lower WHIP, and a lower postseason ERA. He lasted one year on the ballot. Postseason? One great start does not make a Hall of Famer. Dave Stewart was a far greater postseason pitcher and he's not sniffing the Hall. Well, you just toasted my ass right there. However, I just plain like Morris, and I think that he deserves more recognition.

Dan Fielding was the sleazy lawyer from Night Court.

Damn, I thought Dan Fielding finally got a job with the White House.

I really wish that Jack Morris would have gotten the call to the HOF. I think that he has very good stats. Wins- 254 Losses- 186 Complete Games- 175 K's- 2478 ERA- 3.90 WHIP- 1.29 WHIP 3 twenty win seasons 5X All star 1991 World Series MVP Statrted All Star game 3 times 6-1 Postseason record Game 7 1991 World Series against the Braves (One of the greatest pitching performances ever) 10 innings pitched From 1978-1994 this was an interesting stat 173 Wins Nolan Ryan 251 Wins Jack Morris Granted my viewpoint is biased, but I want to see Black Jack Morris make it to Cooperstown.

I think one was a Chicago writer that didn't vote for anyone. He worked for some paper that I never heard of though.
-
Would you sign him for anything longer?
-
Boy does that sound forced.

Oh God not again!!!

"We want wrestling chant!" How appropriate was it that they showed Goldberg-Lesnar from WMXX right before this.
-
I for surely heard a TNA chant there.
-
Amazing that they are actually acknowledging Goldberg-Lesnar.
-
I would actually go with Maria, Mickie, Victoria, and then Melina.
-
Damn does Victoria look fine this evening.
-
Boy I am glad that I am able to watch Benoit vs Raven from Souled Out 98, and remember how much more fun wrestling was. Thank goodness for video posting sites.

Greatest Interview in the history of our sport!
-
This should be a great interview.
-
We should start a pool as to what song they will use for when HHH comes back.
-
Who are the ad wizards that thought of this? And was that a TNA chant I heard right before Hardy's music hit?
-
Oh my this is absolutely horrible.
-
I gotta say that "left-leaning lesbian" was a great line.
-
The Nowinski/Gayda/JBL/Stratus match will look like Steamboat Vs Flair compared to Khali vs Cena.
