EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2008 I never want to go to another dollar dog night again. It's tough to enjoy a game with your father when college students around you seem to casually drop the f-bomb every 30 seconds or so. It's disgraceful. I left after the eighth inning because I simply could no longer tolerate the atmosphere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red Baron 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2008 Probably, yeah, but at least Gretzky has the distinction of shattering almost every possible record to smithereens. I always found it almost arrogant that he even chose to wear 99 in the first place. Â The most retarded number retirement was the Miami Heat retiring Jordan's 23 on a split Bulls/Wizards jersey. That's a big ball of head-scratchers right there. Â Â He didn't. His junior coach from the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhouds offered the number to him since a teammate wore number 9. At the time of the seventies, double numbers were the new thing, as Phil Esposito wore 77 and even John Davidson wore 00 for the Rangers. Since he liked 9, he wore 99. After that the rest is history. Â Anyways, back to baseball. Â Jays routed the O's, 11-3. Jays offence clicking, or Baltimore falling back to reality? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jays offence clicking, or Baltimore falling back to reality? Why not both? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2008 Jays routed the O's, 11-3. Jays offence clicking, or Baltimore falling back to reality? It's easy for an offence to click when they're facing Steve Trachsel. Â The Jays are on the right track. They haven't been blown out of a game yet. They've had some bad luck to only be 8-6, frankly.
