"Hi. I'm Al Kaline, and I wish I was Lou Gehrig. But, today I stand before you reasonably happy, I guess. I mean... I'm not 493 career homers happy, but still... I don't have ALS, so.... there's that. Anyway... thanks a heap for your support. And... well, this won't make a lot of sense for about 40 years, but my name, again is AL Kaline... not to be confused with Alkaline batteries - google it, you'll see. Well.. not now... "Google it" makes no sense.. but it will. I digress. Ummm... right... thanks."

BKB unless you are going to be uppity like the rest of us I am going to have to ask you to leave this thread. To disparage Al Kaline in this thread is blasphemy. Bastard.

:lol: Kirk Gibson? So forgettable I forgot him.

Actually, TheMan, you're in luck... with exception of Hank Greenberg and the guy who wrote Bye Bye Miss American Pie (and 30 game winner) I've run out of Tigers who are interesting. I suppose I could go for the Johnny/Norm Cash joke... but, it's late.
