Words of Wisdom:

Having moral courage & doing the right thing does not mean doing what's easy - PSR

"Michael, this is a business and you're taking it very, very personal. Isn't that right, Tom!?!" Sonny (Godfather)

"Why Ike, whatever do you mean?! Maybe poker's just not your game... I know, let's have a spelling contest!" Doc Holiday (Tombstone)

"If you constantly see the darkness in others, are always concerned about it, continuously pointing it out in others; then you concern yourself with darkness too much. It occupies you. You become enveloped in it and then become dark yourself. Instead, be the Light" Father John Corapi

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    Jeter's 1st walk off, season opener Vs Red Sox, 2006: 9th inning -- Varitek homered to tie the game. Bottom of the 9th, Capt America at the plate...first pitch...bang. Game ov-ah!

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    56 game hit streak in 1941 & 10 rings ~ Thank Joe DiMaggio for the Yankees Universe!

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Lou Gherig. Joe DiMaggio. And of course George Herman Ruth. Most don't know, but "The Babe" was one of the best all-time MLB Pitchers too. He had a 2 year span of 650 innings pitched with less than a 3 ERA! And try moving the fences back to 450' & show me who could hit 61 in 1 year *with a dead ball!* Ruth out homered the entire league. End of story.

  • Tiger or Nicklaus?

    Bobby Jones: The best all-time... The only one with a NATURAL Grand Slam, and done as an honorable amateur (no selling out). Jack did it with a mashie too! Give those guys titanium; juiced golf balls, sculltped fairways / greens; and look out!

  • Petty or Earnhardt?

    #3 The Intimidator - Dale Earnhardt Sr- I was at Daytona that fateful day. Have you seen Kerry Earnhardt...holy twin, batman!
