    I think that was the greater board. Someone posted it when Nully was threatening to eat out of date beefaroni.
    if someone is threatening to eat out of date beefaroni, that is clearly the greatest board.

    • I just found out that Frank Robinson was on the same high school baseball team with Vada Pinson and Curt Flood. Must have been a good high school team. And he played on the basketball team with Bill Russell.

      • Another great tidbit from Wikipedia. Can't believe Nelson Fox won an MVP. Or that he advised someone to flap their arm like a chicken.
        Early in his career, Morgan had trouble with his swing because he kept his back elbow down too low. Teammate Nellie Fox (also a stocky second baseman) suggested to Morgan that while at the plate he should flap his back arm like a chicken to keep his elbow up.[5] Morgan followed the advice, and his flapping arm became Morgan's signature.[3]

          You can never go wrong flapping your arm like a chicken .

          • Also, I love how Wikipedia hyperlinks chicken there. In case we want to know what a chicken is.

                i mean, chickens don't even have arms...the premise seems suspect to say the least

                  Pinson and Flood weren't good enough to make the basketball team?

                        although he was a world class high jumper.

                              You have to be careful playing baseball on a two-way street. Bill Russell probably knew this.
