JOOC, why is what Tyson did all that crazy? He does and says the same stuff almost every month. Most people problably don't even know about it. It's like saying the Tigers are a bad team because they lost last night.
Baseball Guru

Not that it was crazy (which is was) but it makes him a total idiot (I know he is already one) by saying anything about rape....

At least thats why I voted for him....

Not my fault he couldn't stay healthy enough to hit more out, not to mention he was such a weeny that even with a corked bat he only hit 86.

Seriously, the dude did reach double digits in 5 of those seasons when he was getting some PT ... The reason I say this about him, however, has more to do with a particular homer that he hit in the Astrodome, one of the longest ones hit there that I saw ... No way, no frickin-frackin-freakin way Teufel shoulda' been able to hit one that far in that building!

It was 03 July 1989, Teufel and Mark Carreon went back-to-back off Jimmy DeShaies and the Metropolitans won it 3-1 ... Teufel's shot went to the very back of the huge hole in CF, if you recall the way the Astrodome was laid out you'll know where I mean ... Not kidding you, it was high and very long and got out very quick ... George Foster, Mike Schmidt and Willie Stargell could barely hit 'em like that!

Is that also the same DeShaies that gave up 179 hr's in 257 games that he pitched in;)



heehee:D

That arguement holds no water here:laughing


Not my fault DeShaies was so bad he made players like the Teufel Shuffle look like George Foster, Mike Schmidt and Willie Stargell:D
