it's okay, I liked the song back in 1996 :noid:
You dig the song,"Go, Mayberry Bears, Go...!"

I do. And you can't get a more fair Ump than Ange, calling out his own son on a bang bang play.
By the way, I didn't realize that Mayberry had so many mountain ranges if you notice the background at the ballfield. I would think Mayberry was near LA if I didn't know better.
The rumor was that Ange was paid off, i.e., to get Ope into the same college Wally Cleaver attended("State" college), he "rigged" the call, as the opposing manager was the dean at "State," and his son a player on the opposing tean, against them vastly favored Mayberry Bears. The "fix" was in, I tell you....It's a mite curious...
And I reckon Mayberry was on the same set as "MASH." You reckon?

That could be, I believe I saw some choppers flying over the mountain range.
Wally must have done well at State, since he played for the Chicago White Sox, according to "Still the Beaver" from the 80s.
And I figger that Mary Ellen Rogers "played" Wallace, for all it's/he was worth, knowin' that he'd be into big bucks soon...Do you figger?

Yep, she left him and took half of everything, which caused him to only hit .226 in 1968. He was working "at the office" the next year.
Sorta like his dad, Ward Cleaver, who always seemed to be "home early" from "the office." As Barn would say, "Wonder what causes that?"
Great way to finish. I called the Spurs, but I'm surprised it only went five. Let the speculation over James' next uniform begin.
Wade just can't go deep into the playoffs anymore. Not as a starter. It's time for him to turn into Ray Allen or he's hurting the team.
it was a team effort
but
leonard was the difference

Yep.
Ever notice how not one player on the Spurs does any "chest pounding" after they make a big play.

Agreed. Wade is a shell of what he used to be. It's kind of sad to see. They'll need to do some big changes to win another ring, I think. It will be interesting to see how everything plays out.Great way to finish. I called the Spurs, but I'm surprised it only went five. Let the speculation over James' next uniform begin.

Losing 25lbs would be a good start for him...
I was never a big fan of him during his career because of where he played but you can't deny greatness. So sad to see him go so young.
RIP Tony Gwynn. San Diego will miss you. You were the heart and soul of the Padres. I would have started a thread but my site software is messed up.
