Rick, when did Bird tear his labrum??? This is the first I heard about it. Shit fire, its gonna' be a long year without Bird, a highlight of the year he'd of been, IMO..... and just say no to Swisher.....his numbers have been shit.... I know you know how effing painful a torn labrum is, I for one can say that's one long term painful problem, never good........shit, shit, shit....!
Damned, damn it, damn it, damn it..... I was soooo looking forward to seeing how Bird would do this year, a highlight of the Season perhaps........
No thank you, let Swisher and his Val Girl Vocab go anywhere but the Yankees. The man talked all that "Brohio" Crap and pretty much flubbed the Dub.
He must of used my Doc initially, who can't diagnose a hang nail, ... or won't... I'm kind of puzzled. Did Bird complain, and the Doc didn't diagnose, or did Bird keep silent, hoping the pain would go away, hoping it was something simpler than it is. Young guns get like that, and often have enough motivation, to play with a broken leg....?
...Matts, "undiagnosed" was probably the wrong term...he first felt pain last May and went on the DL for a month of rest...he disclosed to his agent and the Yanx after the season that he still felt pain...the Yanx have in the past failed to do their "due diligence" in following up on injuries and catching problems during physicals. ...but Cashman, blamed Bird because he claimed that Bird “wasn’t really honest with us; it was kind of bothering him the whole time.”
Thank You 59, I appreciate your help and info, on this matter, I was totally unaware, and the post caught me off guard....!
Hey Ron I just got a call from my friend Kristin she told me she is moving to Stone Mountain, Georgia. Is that close to you???
...Nah, Stone Mountain is a little north of Atlanta I believe...I'm a little south of Macon. ...one of my fav bands is from Stone Mountain. (Mother's Finest)...possibly the best live band I ever saw...ass kickin' music. Funk Rock if you will...They were unjustly labeled as "too black for white radio and too white for black radio". ...and a great slow dance (belly rubbin' music) I used to play as a DJ back in the day...the girl can wail...think she gets off at the 4:00 mark'
Good one Rick lol I never heard of them either but I will watch the videos later. You know I'm a fan of all kinds of music.
...well, I'm sure a lot of people have never heard of them even though they're still rockin'...that's the reason why I told a little about them and why I posted the videos. Obviously they enjoyed most of their success in the South in the mid 70's but like I said, they were unfairly labeled as "too black for white radio and too white for black radio" and thusly they had a hard time getting radio stations to play their music...but it shouldn't diminish the fact that they were a very good band...the music business is very fickle. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mother's_Finest
...awww c'mon Rick...I'll bet you were the King of Disco...hell, I'll bet you still got your stacked heels in the closet waiting for them to come back in style.
