On a personal note: Loosing all those Whiffle Ball games to my buddy Billy (holandkat) Bruce!!! I had decent stuff, A Southpaw with a nice 12-6 curveball, I just didn't have a good stick!!!
You should have learned by now Stewy, you can't beat no Astro....
RRR, that takes me back to my worst memory.....watching Joe Rowe and Rocky White and their fellow Padres serenade us with "2,4,6,8 who do we appreciate" after losing the final game of the LL championship (for the second year in a row). I had to watch that one from the bench because the ump tossed me from the game....which, after 27 years I've grudgingly accepted was my own fault.
As a fan, the Michigan State game in '98. My then 3 year-old daughter had to scold me after that one. "Daddy, we don't say '#*!%.'"
In high school, dealing with the agony my buddy John Hannon felt after losing a wrestling match to a guy with one leg! Excruciating. I still laugh...I mean, feel empathy for him over that one.
Losing to Stewy at his home field with the short right field porch. It knocked my record against him down to 106-1. Never make fun of a fat man yielding a spring-loaded Fungo bat and a lifetime of whiffle ball futility.
He has only been back to work for a month after having a hernia surgery and now faces another long stretch of not being able to go to work.
