Just my two cents...Pete Rose should be in the HOF.
I'm not sure if Roger Marris is in but if he's not, he should be.

Pete should be there because of his on the field play....the fact that he's an idiot for betting on games that he managed shouldn't come into play! Roger Maris really had only 2 great years and that 's not enough for HOF

Timm,
I agree about Pete Rose. Maris..oh well.
Actually, my son is much more into it than I am. He got Nolan Ryan to sign a ball for him, Bob Feller too. Ted Williams was always there.
If you ever get a chance to come to NY, I'll put you up. C'town is pretty nearby. My best favorite is Mr October.

DTS: One of my longtime dreams is to visit Cooperstown! Sounds like your son has a good collection. Of course....you'd have to put me in the right wing of your house,lol

Timm,
That could easily be arranged. The right wing is yours. I'll even clean it. take your pick of the three bedrooms there.
Also, I'm about an hour and a bit from Toga.
Fly in to Albany and I'll pick you up.
