RIP Tony...unreal how great of a player he was and from what I hear, he was just as good off the field as he was on the field.

 

CSN Philly just did a father / son article about Tony and Tony Jr and posted it yesterday for Father's Day....it's sad to read knowing he died hours later.

Wow, I grew up watching this guy play.  Him and Ripken were some of my favorite players during that time.  He played the game the right way, and was classy.  He was a great pro.  His stats are insane, 8 batting titles, 15 all-stars, career .338 hitter with like 3100 hits.  Good luck finding that again.  And he stayed with his team his whole career, like Cal did.

      The good thing about replacing a bad player is you really have nothing to lose. If their replacement is bad so what, you didn't get much worse and probably saved money.

      I came over from the old Panthers Insider site. When Fox Sports bought that platform it slowly just started dying plus the guy who ran that site was dealing with some pretty significant health issues so the whole thing just slowly fell apart. Quite a few of us migrated over here. Not sure how many are still around.  I miss that place. It struck a nice balance of having enough active posters to keep productive conversation flowing but didn't have so much traffic that you end up with a lot of trolling BS. This place is getting there though since we shutdown new registrations but at some point we're going to have to open it back up or we'll watch this place slowly die off too as posters fall off for one reason or another. We just have to figure out a way to filter out the spam bots. It was a never ending battle to ban the spam bots to keep then from overrunning the site. You'd think they'd be a little more strategic. I mean, if you fill a site with nothing but spam people are just going to stop coming so it's not a sustainable model. But nope, every one of them makes dozens of duplicate threads filling up pages upon pages as soon as their account goes live.

      lol...I don't remember that.  Although recalling what I had for breakfast yesterday is sometimes a challenge.  Hope it was a positive thing.
