I remember Lou getting a large enough lead off of first to MAKE the pitcher throw to first and beating the throw to second.Originally posted by Rangerzag View Post
I have been a Cardinals fan since 1954 when my first game was in St Louis. I got to see Stan the Man play, and have been a baseball fan ever since.Not even a smile? What's your problem!Comment

This is the one I feared. Every time that I saw a new post in this thread for the past few years, I have cringed and hoped that this name would never appear on this thread. I wish that she could have retired in peace. She deserved the rest after giving so much of herself for so many decades.Originally posted by Rangerzag View Post“No team in the country has a better winning percentage against power conference teams since 2017 than Gonzaga... the Zags are playing above average teams in the best leagues in the country and winning 78% of the time.”

I respect her so much, and wish I could have met her. She had been fighting and in pain a long time.
I am so far beyond angry about what's happened in the wake of her death that I will just say that it's too bad an American giant, all 5 feet of her, past. Powerful legal mind.
I am soooo angry ...Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

The Kansas Comet
Hall of Fame running back Gale Sayers, age 77.
Sayers was drafted by the Chicago Bears in the first round, fourth overall, in the 1965 NFL Draft, and was also picked fifth overall by the Kansas City Chiefs of the American Football League in the AFL draft. After consulting his wife, he decided would rather play in Chicago, signing with George Halas's Bears. In his rookie year, he scored an NFL-record 22 touchdowns: 14 rushing, six receiving, and one each on punt and kickoff returns. He gained 2,272 all-purpose yards, a record for an NFL rookie, with 1,371 of them coming from scrimmage. Sayers averaged 5.2 yards per rush and 17.5 yards per reception. His return averages were 14.9 yards per punt return and a league-high 31.4 yards per kickoff return.The GUB Resource Library: Links to: Stats, Blogs, Brackets, & More. . .

I had the pleasure of meeting Justice Ginsburg as a law student. She spoke to my 1L Constitutional Law class. The event was unannounced, probably for security reasons. We were told to be early to class, because we would need to go through security screening for a guest lecturer. Rumors circulated that it might be Justice RBG, because her husband was scheduled to speak to the State Bar Association that evening.Originally posted by DZ View Post
Sure enough, she emerged at the front of our class with the dean, the Chief Justice of the state supreme court, and our professor. Despite her small frame, she is a powerful, commanding presence. She spoke to our class for about thirty minutes about the importance of using our legal education to make lives better for less fortunate persons.
I was fortunate enough to be among a handful of students who was invited to lunch with her and with a few VIPs from the local bar. She was more interested in speaking to the students than she was with the judges and law faculty. She is very soft-spoken, but I found myself hanging on her every word. She reminded us repeatedly that very few people will ever have the opportunity that was before us and that we had immense power to make better lives for other people.
She was as brilliant and focused in person as her reputation would suggest.“No team in the country has a better winning percentage against power conference teams since 2017 than Gonzaga... the Zags are playing above average teams in the best leagues in the country and winning 78% of the time.”
