Yeah, I would have posted that one myself since it's 1969 but I went with the '71. Is "photoshopping" better that airbrushing? Yes. Yes it is.

Ha ha! What a coincidence.

Actually, now I see we have featured the same player the last 3days in a row; but the string was broken on May 7th.

My birthday posts are written weeks in advance so if I am getting any mental telepathy from your site, it is working in a "back to the fture" kind of way.

Oh, if you have Milt Pappas up for tomorrow, we're gonna have four in a row!

I try to get weeks ahead on mine too but I'm lagging lately. I think I'm only a week ahead right now. I skipped Milt Pappas. He annoys me with his whining about losing his perfect game. It's was decades ago Milt. Get over it.
