    Unlike Steve Blake, a hall of famer and one of the greatest of all time.

    This is purely speculation and hearsay.

    I'm watching Making A Murderer and am really thinking of starting to add this legalese into my lexicon......FAMS!

    Seriously, Law And Order is the longest running TV series in American History and you never once picked that phrase up? :dunno:

    You know I've never seen an episode of it. Love lawyer/law movies too. Just never stopped to watch one.

    I remember hearing about BBF, but I don't remember where or from who. Signed up right after the Martell Webster draft I think. I think Kevin Pritchard and Tom Penn told me about it and said I should join. Wheels maybe. But they all knew who I was on there and used to give me shit for my posts. Thanks to that one guy who ruined it for us and we all moved here. Love this place FAMS!

    I guess that's fair. I never stopped to watch Gunsmoke (the other longest running show) until I got sick a few years ago. Every show is the same plot. Criminals come to town to try out Marshall Dillon, 6'7" 240 pound James Arness. He kicks the shit out of them and then shoots them. That show ran for 18 years....

    Yes, of course, just ask him!

    Seriously, I grew up near Charles O. Finley back when he owned the A's. So, while I was a Cubs fan the A's were my 2nd favorite team. Charlie O. certainly had a lot of innovative ideas and assembled some great talent - before losing it all to free agency. Those early 70s A's teams were so much fun to watch and the year Rickey stole 130 bases was insane. Everybody in the stadium and watching at home knew every time he reached first, he was going to try to steal 2nd and possibly 3rd. Didn't matter what the score was, or what inning it was, he was off to the races. Just try and stop him. Walking Rickey was like giving up a double to anyone else.

    That made me laugh. Gunsmoke was my dad's favorite show.

    I loved Perry Mason. You'd think the Burger guy would just give up. He ALWAYS lost! He should have known there was only 3 minutes left in the show and whenever he would see good ol Paul Drake poke his head in the door.....he knew he was fucked right?!?

    Seriously. You want to shout at the TV.

    "WHY THE HELL ARE YOU FIGHTING A GUY WHO'S BUILT LIKE DICK BUTKUS?!"

    There are always like five of them who attack him at once. And he still beats them up.

    James Arness was the original Thing in the
    black and white movie. So the way I look at it they are just fighting a sheriff from outer space.

    Yeah. I always felt bad for Burger. Perry Mason always owned his ass in court.

    Perry Mason. Damn, we're going way back. Perry would just watch that door waiting for the last minute evidence. Oh the suspense!!

    Didn't he lose once? Seemed like he wanted to though.

    That was, is and always will be my sister's favorite show. I bet she's seen every episode at least 50 times. Not only does she know Perry is going to win, she knows how and why he's going to win, but still can't stop watching.

    Here's Arness fighting Chuck Connors . Who played professional football and baseball. So at least they couldn't make it a quick one.
