> I was a lurker back then and I know some people were probably not happy when I won the X-Arcade giveaway. KC sent me an email and posted it in the Frontpage News that I had won. That was just over 22 years ago. 01/03/2002
Congrats on that. I know I likely missed that announcement since I was also on MAME.net forums a lot more at the time.
I’ll guess one was Fazeo. Him and his Bos Red Sox being beaten in World Series by your Cards a couple times in 20th century until Red Sox beat Cards in World Series in 2013.
The part that I laughed about was when Fazeo was celebrating the NFL New England Patriots first Super Bowl win by placing an enlarged Vince Lombardi trophy image within Fazeo’s sig image whenever Fazeo was posting on MW forums.
Smit mockingly made fun of Faz’s posts with “Aren’t you over doing it with your posts and that trophy!?”
That annoyed Faz and Faz respond with something like :
“ F off. I expected that comment from jop, but from you. You won’t rain on my Patriots parade posts.”
That had me laughing. I miss the days when bickering with Faz and his NHL Boston Bruins or twisty with his NHL M’Leafs whenever they faced Pitt Penguins.
On sports topic with Pitt Steelers season over, back to Penguins and eventually Pirates when MLB season starts in another two months.
As for MLB hof nominations, I am glad Jim Leyland is inducted. Beltran and Vizquel should be in and same with Gary Sheffield. Others also have good numbers, but those three should have been added over past couple years.
