TCFB,Turning back the clock


June 21st

Lou Gehrig quit baseball due to illness. (1939)

Ben Hogan recorded the lowest score (to that time) in a major golf tournament. Hogan shot a 271 for 72 holes in Chicago, IL. (1942)

Australian John Landy ran the mile in 3 minutes and 58 seconds. He was the second person to achieve the feat. (1954)

The Women's National Basketball Association made its debut. The New York Liberty defeated the Los Angeles Sparks 67-57. (1997)

Happy Birthday to the following people. If any of you are dead now & I missed the news, I apologize. I'm trying to be nice here.....

Happy 43rd to former NBA star, Derrick Coleman. Has anyone ever done less with more talent?

Happy 51st to former Sonics forward, Tom Chambers.

Happy 54th to former Cubbies hurler, Rick Sutcliffe.

& for my "non-sports" birthday wishes.....

Happy 278th to the first "First Lady", George's honey, Martha Washington.

I know that it is hard for a diehard Bosox fan to give props to a Yankee. Thanks for a little note on Lou Gehrig. He means a lot to baseball and to the world for that matter. Rick Sutcliffe is a favorite of mine. As for Derrick Coleman, what a bum! He made all that money and didn't to crap with his talent. One of the most wasteful players in sports history.

dude, I wore a Derek Jeter jersey on the Emmy Award winning TCFB show last year. I give props when props are due, regardless of the laundry!

Thanks for stopping in and always commenting, man.
