There was an episode of Seinfeld in which George has a Phil Rizzuto keychain, that when you squeeze it, it says 'Holy Cow!' Does such a thing exist?

We miss you Phil, like Steinbrenner said, I guess heaven needed a shortstop.

Assuming Mike Vick goes for a plee bargain, would the falcons still lose the salary cap room as if he was on the team or do they lose that entirely and can spend that money on new players?

are there any in the minors? must be right? how about in history? when the ***** leagues integrated im sure there were some right?

lets not turn this into an unintelligent argument about race, but Ive just noticed really theres no african american catchers in mlb at all,

ive thought about why that is, there are only about 10 pitchers who are black too

besides baseball not big in black neighborhoods, is it because black players who come up in the minors or into the game are put into the outfield because of their athleticism? (yeah i know this is a stereotype)

what is up with this?

I've been a Mets fan since I was a kid, back when guys like Darryl Strawberry and Gary Carter were on the team. I liked the Mets because my father was a Mets fan, and my family lived for 10 years in Flushing.

But I also liked the Mets because they had this energy about them, and when they won, they didn't take themselves so seriously, they had fun, and still do. They're the offbeat alternative to the stoic and serious Yankees. Even when they were bad (names like Vince Coleman and Mo Vaughn come to mind) that just made the good times even sweeter.

So what about the rest of you? What makes you like "your team"?

Help me decide. I like the look of the Para Ordnance Ops and LTC. Second choice would be a Kimber. I have only used a Springfield with a full length slide, I thought it was a great gun. My father likes his S&W wich I havent yet used and friend said to get either a Colt or S&W. So I'm totally confused. I dont really like the look of these others as much but are they better guns. I realize you get what you pay for but the Colt/ S&W seem to be a bit to pricey for me. Would the shorter guns be totallt inaccurate? User reviews of any brand /style would be helpful.

I'm going hiking this weekend with my fiance, it's not an overnight trip but one of those day hike things. I've never been before but when I first started dating him almost a year ago I told him I loved hiking and I used to go all the time, but I was only saying it to impress him, I didn't know he would ask me to go on a trip with him. The hike is like seven miles long and it's supposed to have a lot of nature stuff along the way. But my question is what does a person take with them on a hiking trip? And do bugs bite you ? because I hate that! Is it really enjoyable?

I've been playing billiards with my friends at school but we don't have a really good understanding of the rules. Hopefully if you guys could, provide me with a simple explanation of some of the rules cause the ones online have been hard to understand. Clarification for 8 ball

If a player hits the cue ball without striking any balls, this is considered a scratch correct? any exceptions?

If a player hits the cue ball striking the suit that is not his first, then it is a scratch?

When a player scratches, they are allowed to place the ball anywhere on the table correct?

Is it a scratch when the player hits the 8 ball first when they have other balls that they shoudl be trying to hit first?

If these are too hard to understand (sorry), coudl you just explain to me what is considered a scratch and any exception to that? Also the placement of the ball when a scratch occurs.

Thanks for the help

Mr. McMahon realized he had an Illegitimate chlid and it broke his family apart. Fakin' his death, to others I can't explain.

Now that, from what I think, is no longer welcome in his own home, is his popularity dead?

(FYI, I don't care if you say it's all a storyline. In fact, I don't care what is going on anyway. This will be my FINAL wrestling question.)

I know they did well in last year's bowl season but does one season prove anything? I mean if you look at the teams, I am not sure I would classify any as a powerhouse. Just trying to get different opinions here.

It's not going to fix the overall quality of Raw, or all of WWE for that matter.

It's not going to fix the fact that storylines are as bland as ever.

All it's going to do is give us what many fans what they want: Cena without a belt. Even then, he'll just get it back again whenever he comes back.

Don't get me wrong, I'll be happy to see him without the belt..I just don't think it will be the start of anything special in WWE.
