    Walton goes around saying that others were better than him, or that someone is the best center ever, etc. These are then quoted by newbies as proof he was second-rate. For example, he says Lucas (who was 20% the player Walton was) was the best player on the team.

    Walton's whole purpose in life was to share--stats and praise. This generated his politics.

    Yes, just for the fact that he is a large reason why this team isn't the Anaheim Blazers.

    Of all the great Yankees, how many actually have their number retired?

    They retired Larry Steele. Enough said!

    No, I'm pretty sure Larry Steele was never a Yankee.

    Steele was a Blazer and we are talking about retired Blazers. Who are the Yankees? Do they shoot British people?

    Every thread is hijacked by people who want to talk about men who stick a feather up their cap and ride a pony, if you know what I mean. One-track minds, always thinking of that.

    Man, I totally missed the subtext of that song all these years. I'll never think of macaroni the same way again.

    It's a matter of taste. I say it's all in the cheese.
