          I paid for that 91 second fiasco. Got really drunk that night though. High School... good times... good times...

            Yeah that was a travesty. Loved Tyson back then though. My senior year of high school was '88.

                  I agree the golden age of boxing was getting near it's end at that time.

                  ...But I digress.

                      I will pay to see it, but boxing won't rebound unless these big name fighters are bigger than 120lbs.

                        The UFC seems to do pretty well without that killer heavyweight (outside of Brock).

                          All the more reason boxing needs it.

                            Virginia SP Jerry Morgan, who lost his rookie eligibility by 1.1 inning, will be better than any IL rookie this season.

                            Virginia 2B Joshua Poling has his Superstar BreakOut season.

                              Not terribly bold, but Harry Keppel will experience a resurgence and we'll see flashes of play that will remind us of the early '80's. He's facing all sorts of Milestones this season and I think he does it in style.

                              18 shy of 2000 hits
                              3 shy of 300 HRs
                              56 shy of 1000 Runs
                              71 shy of 1200 RBIs


                              .300 | .380 | .550 | 30 HR | 90 RBI
                              Philly Freedom
                              Owner & GM: 1987 - Pres.
                              Porter Div. Champs (Mbr '84-'15): 1984, 1985, 1988, 1990, 1991, 2002, 2004, 2010, 2011
                              Stout Div. Champs (Mbr '78-'83 & '16-present): 2016, 2017
                              IL Wild Card Winner: 1987, 2013, 2018, 2019
                              Import League Champs: 1984, 2010, 2017

                                Gremades will have a career year:

                                .360, 33 HR, 120 RBI
                                Dallas Snappers

                                Pilsner Champs: 1984, 1986, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998
                                DL Wild card: 1992
