Damned if you weren't right about that. Chambliss came back to the Yankees after a one year layoff in 1988 and had one at-bat for them. (He struck out.) That was his only at-bat in 1988 and he then called it a career. He wore #50 instead of #10 because in 1985 the Yankees retired Phil Rizzuto's number so that meant his old uniform number was unavailable. Chambliss wore #14 for Cleveland and #10 for the Yankees and Braves.

Sure. Search the forums for something called Artmoney. Follow the directions and you will be all set.

Who could forget Julie Newmar who played Catwoman? She was my favorite, for obvious reasons. Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Here's one I always thought was very pretty. Her name is Sharon Tate and what she is most famous for is how she died. Because of Charles Manson her career was cut short. Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Phil Rizzuto wore #10.Munson's #15 is retired too.

Thank you Dylan. I appreciate it a lot. I hope you had a wonderful birthday too.

There is no reason for you to partition your hard drive to play this game on Windows 7. Believe me I should know because I have Mvp 2005 installed on XP, Vista and Windows 7 and I do not have one problem running it on any of them. And if you don't like the pitch meter go in the download section and search for another one.

Updated to 7-14 ...I don't know if it is going to matter one bit if Chipper Jones complains about umpire Angel Hernandez and tells everyone that he won't watch any game that he umpires in. I'm with Chipper 100% because I see for myself how bad Hernandez is but I think that nothing is going to happen to this guy because Commissioner Do-Nothing always looks the other way. Who knows? Maybe he has incriminating pictures of Selig working late at night with his secretary in a room that apparently was so hot they had to remove all their clothes. Hey, could be. Just a guess. ...The American Civil Liberties Union is very concerned about the accommodations that Aaron Hernandez is having to cope with as he waits for his murder trial to start. They are worried because he is in solitary confinement and locked alone in a small room with very little human interaction for over twenty hours a day. The ACLU argues that prisoners who are locked up in this way suffer debilitating psychological effects when they are extremely isolated and that it drastically diminishes the chances of rehabilitation. Maybe so. But even if Hernandez is locked in a room all this time and might get a little stir crazy because of it his situation is infinitely better than Odin Lloyd's, who is six feet under and unable to complain about his accommodations. ...I have to admit that Manny Ramirez looks almost normal after he got his haircut. ...There is a rock formation in Utah called The Wave and if people want to hike there the only way they can do it is by entering a lottery for the privilege to do so. The odds of winning this permit are as low as ten percent but it did not discourage an elderly couple from California from entering. Lady Luck must have been with them because the next thing they knew they had won the permit to go there and they arrived in Utah so fast even the Mormons were impressed. This place is protected so well by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management that they only allow twenty hikers a day to go there. (By the way, before I go on, someone's missing a golden opportunity here. If they increase it to fifty people a day and then have a couple of their employees drive around in dune buggys selling cold water and sandwiches to the hikers they'd clean up.) This is why this couple was so thrilled when they won. It is unknown when Lady Luck got interested in something else left them on their three mile hike across open country but that's exactly what she did and both of them, the woman (aged 69) and the man (aged 70) were found the next day by other hikers, dead of dehydration. I don't know what it is but when I read about senseless deaths like this it stays with me for awhile. These people should be alive today. I have two questions about this and one easy prediction. 1. Didn't these people realize that this section of the country has been having daily temperatures soar well over one hundred degrees making the humidity insufferable and maybe --just maybe-- because of this called it off due to health concerns? 2. Same point as above, but pointing the finger at the officials that run this thing. Because of the hundred degree daily temperatures that they've been going through wouldn't it have been a good idea to postpone this until the weather breaks like ten or fifteen degrees? Or if not, supply them with a two-way radio or something for them to have to call for help? 3. And here's my prediction about this entire mess: expect a lawsuit from someone on behalf of the deceased. Told you it was an easy one. ...Whether they come out and say it or not, law enforcement agencies must love social media sites like Twitter because it gives people a false sense of security that helps them catch the suspects they are looking for. That explains how the San Diego County District Attorney was able to catch a sixty year old woman who was on the run for receiving over $660 thousand in disability payments when it fact she wasn't injured. The woman in question was sentenced to more than twenty years in prison for this and also was order to pay more than one million dollars in fines and restitution. If she wasn't hurting then she's certainly hurting now. When this verdict was handed down back in January this woman decided that her life here in the United States suddenly began cramping her style so she took off as fast as she could with very little luggage but plenty of money and her final dig to the San Diego D.A. was via twitter and it said "catch me if you can" and the next thing she knew that is exactly what they did. The cops didn't have to go far to get her as they went over the border to Rosarito Beach, Mexico which is only fifteen miles south of San Diego. When you do something like this you become your own worst enemy. She's probably still wondering how they found her. ...Sarah Palin said last week that she is considering running for senate in Alaska in 2014 but she wants to make sure that people understand she's only considering it and also stated that she may or may not run as she is not too sure right now. It could be one way or another. Nothing's been decided and she's certainly not reached a decision as of yet. If you understood all of this consider yourself a step ahead of everyone else. ...What this woman lacks in intelligence she makes up for in stupidity. ...I don't know if the kids in Thailand were taught about World War II or if they've even heard of it but Adolph Hitler, of all people, is a cult figure in that country. This guy is so popular he has a Fried Chicken joint named after him and initial reviews of the place say that the chicken is pretty good. Hitler's mug is all over the place there it's really hard to say why. (Although I did have to laugh at what they did to the Ronald McDonald face that is just to the right of the hot looking but mixed up girl.) There was even a time when some students showed up for school dressed as Nazis with swastika arm bands and toy guns. Can you imagine if that happened in this country? School officials will be falling over themselves to be the first to suspend the kids and notify the media. This is one of the oddest things I have heard in a long time and it is anyone's guess as to why those kids are treating this guy of all people like a rock star. But as nuts as this fried chicken place sounds and whatever reasons the Thai kids think that Hitler is somehow cool it is that country's concern. We have enough to worry about right here. ...The saddest person in all of Thailand after Hitler's Fried Chicken opened up was a rabbi who has lived in Bangkok for these past thirty years. He expressed sadness that a place of business used that name to represent themselves but was even more downcast when he finally admitted that the chicken that he had from that place was the best damn chicken he ever had. ...I realize that Brian Wilson has had two Tommy John surgeries in the past but it is still hard to believe that no one has taken a chance on him this year. ...Congratulations to Atlanta's Freddie Freeman for being voted to the final spot on the National League All Star team instead of hot dog Yasiel Puig. *&#% him. ...Amanda Bynes got on her twitter account last week and added the President and Mrs. Obama to the long list of people that she has called "ugly." I feel bad for the President and First Lady because Bynes is an expert on what is ugly and what isn't because all she has to do is look in the mirror. ...I've been hearing about those 3D printers for awhile and the more I've been reading about them the more interesting they've become. I was even flirting with maybe getting one of them but when I heard they were over $1,000 the flirtation immediately stopped. ...A Tennessee woman last week went to her neighbor's house and asked him if she could go swimming in his pool completely naked. The guy must have thought he'd won his own private lottery because he couldn't say yes fast enough and to show the woman he was a nice guy he stayed right by the pool the entire time she was there watching her swim. Finally after about twenty minutes he went to get her a towel but it seemed that the woman must have felt she needed a little bit more practice on her backstroke because she went right back in the pool after drying off. Seems the woman had a purpose in all of this because while she was doing all that swimming her husband was in the house robbing the place and he went off with some jewelry, medication and a firearm. The first thing that I thought of when I first read this was thank God I do not have a pool. ...Between now and the 31st of July we will be showered with news about actual trades and rumors about ones that may or may not happen and to get things off on the right track this year are the Yankees, who are supposed to be shopping Joba Chamberlain and Phil Hughes around the league. If this is true or not no one is talking about it right now. That's why it's a rumor. But the way I see it this really has to be because I can not imagine any other team in baseball that would want anything to do with either of these two underachieving losers unless the Yankees threw in something of greater value, like an all expense paid dinner at a five star restaurant. ...If there is any truth to that ESPN article that said Alex Rodriguez, Ryan Braun and "at least twenty other players" will be suspended sometime after the All Star break then all this is really going to do is take the game off the field where it belongs and bring it to a courtroom where nothing good comes from it. I won't worry none if Rodriguez gets suspended and the amount of games means nothing to me either. I'll still sleep like a baby either way. But this time to show they aren't conducting their own private A-Rod witch hunt, baseball had better be serious about suspending Braun and those "twenty other players" because if they don't it is going to give Rodriguez' lawyers grounds for saying he has been singled out. ...Derek Jeter returned to the Yankees last Thursday afternoon with the cheering of the Yankee Stadium crowd ringing in his ears. Don't misunderstand, it was nice to see him back but this team is going to need more than his presence to turn things around in the second half. Jeter did leave the game early due to suffering a strained quad muscle when he was running out a ball in the sixth inning. How long he will be out for this is anyone's guess right now. This latest setback did not discourage him one bit once the game was over as he spent the rest of the evening performing brain surgery, delivering two sets of twins in a subway and being the guest conductor at the New York Philharmonic. ...I was flipping through the sports channels during that Thursday Royals-Yankees game just to listen to ESPN and the MLB Network issue enough hosannas towards Captain Twenty Million that it almost made you want to check to see if Jeter's feet were actually on the ground when he was walking. As far as I knew it was and I got a hi-definition TV. Then Kevin Millar, who has no business being on TV talking about baseball or anything else, says this gem about Jeter when he was talking about him getting his timing back. He's a veteran. He's got 3,300 hits. So believe me he's been in that batter's box a lot. Really? Because I had no idea. I thought maybe he bought all those hits off of someone on eBay. ...Final thing about Jeter, he ended up in fifth place among the voters for the American League's starting shortstop and that is despite not playing in one game. Too bad though, had he managed to play in one or two games he would have had the ballot stuffers working overtime to get him in. ...He hasn't been here in awhile but I want to wish a happy birthday to that great schedule maker and more importantly all around good guy Dylan Bradbury. Have a good one Dylan! ...Prediction for Tuesday's All-Star Game at Citi Field? An American League victory. Reason? Who knows, I'm just guessing here.

They never do Jim.

It's not a stupid question at all but what you need to do is search these forums for your questions beforehand because if you had you would not have posted this question. There's a very good thread started many years ago by a member here that covers basic questions like this. It's called Mvp Baseball 2005 for Dummies and you will have no trouble in the future locating this thread since it is hot linked on the main page of this website

No, he used hot dogs and soda. A few more: Hiroki Kuroda throws the ball away trying to pick off a White Sox runner. Mark Teixeira wasn't paying attention because he was playing with his wrist. Same inning. Alex Rodriguez throws the ball away because speedster A.J. Pierzynski was racing down the line. With Rodriguez making 29 million and Jeter in the poor house making only 20 million a year, neither one of them could be bothered to go after this ground ball. Alexei Ramirez can not believe he let that pitch go. No matter, the White Sox won 9 - 6.

Thank you again for this very accurate roster set.

Updated to 7-7 ...The New England Patriots this weekend are allowing fans that purchased Aaron Hernandez jerseys the opportunity to exchange them online and at their stadium team store. Nice move by the team to distance themselves even more from their former tight end by trying to collect back as many sold Hernandez jerseys as they can. By this time next year the Patriots will deny even knowing this guy. ...Just when you think the Dodgers were getting nice and comfortable in last place they bring up Yasiel Puig and since his call up all he's done is hit everything that's been pitched to him as he woke up a Dodger team that seemed to be going through the motions before he got there. Good news always seems to beget more good news and this was the case for Los Angeles when they found out that Josh Beckett (0-5, 5.19 ERA) will be missing the rest of the season as he will undergo surgery on a nerve in the neck area. And just like that the Dodgers could be the team to watch in the N.L. West after the All Star break because of this rookie phenom who is tearing up the league and getting rid of a pitcher who can't decide if he likes KFC or Popeye's the best. ...Then again wait a minute. Hold that post. ...The Cubs managed to unload Carlos Marmol on somebody and that somebody was the Dodgers. Who says all the luck the Cubs have is bad? I'm sure that the Dodgers are hoping for good things from Marmol after he gets himself straightened out in AAA ball. If not, Jose Valverde is only a phone call away. ...Last week I finished my graduation party obligations and after my wife and I arrived home I thought I was freed up for the rest of the summer because we had nothing else scheduled that we had to attend. I was wrong. I got a call last Sunday that informed us that a baby shower was going to take place on August 4th. Sure, I told my mother and then I told her I would let my wife know all about it when she woke up. And then she sprung it on me. "This baby shower is going to be different. It's going to be a group baby shower where the men are invited!" I was going to ask her if she was kidding but since I know her so well I knew she wasn't. I asked her who's bright idea it was to have it like this and she told me that a lot of showers were being done this way now and it is a lot of fun. You got to hand it to women. They think of new ways to stick it to you and then with a straight face they tell you that you'll enjoy it. ...I got a feeling how this group baby shower thing started. There must have been some woman out there who was invited to a lot of these things and went to all of them and while she was away her husband stayed at home watching a football or a baseball game and maybe even took a nap and when she found this out she decided to start this custom just to drag him with her. ...The heat situation from Las Vegas down to Arizona has been crazy lately and I have to admire the people that have been living through this intense heat since it began. I've always been able to work pretty well outside in the heat but never in temperatures that went over 120 degrees. I believe the worst I ever had to work in was in 102 degree heat and that was hell. You don't need anyone to tell you it's too hot when your sneakers start to melt, and that's exactly what has been happening there. I just wish them a lot of luck and I hope that they get a nice rainstorm very soon. ...The most interesting part about Serena Williams being eliminated from this year's Wimbledon tournament is that after she lost she didn't blame it on someone else or an injury excuse that she just happened to come up with. ...Manny Ramirez is back in America and not a moment too soon. Thanks to the Texas Rangers, who signed him to a minor league contract and assigned him to their AAA Round Rock, Texas farm team, his return to the major leagues can only be a short time away if he hits as well as he did when he was in Taiwan. This is good for baseball fans everywhere since it gets boring putting down Alex Rodriguez all the time and it's good for Manny because he is down to his last eight or nine million and when that happens you really have to learn to budget your money. ...Now who didn't see this coming? Fighting between supporters of deposed Egyptian President Mohamed Morsy and their opponents broke out last week as rock throwing, tear gas launching and gunshots were exchanged with both sides reporting that they had a very good time. Meanwhile in Israel daily activity has slowed to a crawl as most of the country is watching what is going on in Egypt and there have been three reports of people with bad hearts that were laughing so hard that it killed them. ...In probably one of the worst cases of animal cruelty I have read about in quite some time, a Florida man has been arrested for strangling his family's puppy, chopping it into pieces and cooking its ribs on the stove. The guy got busted because a family member called the cops on him and when the police came they found the dog's ribs cooking in a pot on the stove and the head thrown in the garbage. I'm having a hard time typing this piece out because it's making me sick. The man was arrested on suspicion of animal cruelty. Suspicion? How much more proof do they need? The sad part is because this guy killed a puppy the punishment he will be facing will be no where as severe as if he hurt a child instead and for any dog owners out they would agree without a second's hesitation. ...An Indian airline called GoAir announced last week that from now on in order to save fuel they would only be hiring female flight attendants based on the reason that women are usually lighter than men. The pilots from this airline have unanimously approved of this change because when it was time to hit the mile high club again they didn't want to do it with someone named Vijay. ...Cuba has not aired a Major League Baseball game in their country since 1961 and all that changed last week when they showed a Braves-Nationals game that was played back on the second of May. There was no explanation as to why a game that was played two months ago was shown to the Cuban audiences. If they keep this up they won't find out who won the World Series until Christmas. ...Usually when Jonathan Papelbon says something I only partially listen to it but last week he actually said something that made so much sense I had to double check just to make sure he was the guilty party. He said that it would be a joke if Yasiel Puig got included on the National League's All Star team only because he had a good first month in the majors. Like him or not, Papelbon makes a very good point. I don't think there would be any doubt about Puig being included had he been called up in early April and put up comparable numbers. ...Curtis Granderson, trying to come back from his second major injury this year after breaking his left pinkie, started taking swings in a pool last week with a pipe to build up his strength in his non throwing hand. So far there's been no reports of any setbacks but the way this guy's luck has been going this year it is only a matter of time he gets water in his ear and develops an ear infection. ...It's pretty rare that a major league umpire gets fired for any reason. I may be mistaken here but the last time this happened had to be when a group of umpires lead by Ken Kaiser resigned as a ploy to get a new contract from Baseball. That ended up being a big mistake for the umpires who signed those letters of resignation because after union negotiations with baseball they were not rehired. Now last week Brian Runge, a fourteen year veteran, was let go due to a drug violation. I won't debate Baseball's stand on this topic but I think an umpire should be given the chance to get help and earn his way back or if not Commissioner Do-Nothing should apply this same policy towards the players. ...Last Wednesday (July 3rd) was the 42nd anniversary of Jim Morrison's death. The Doors are one of my favorite bands of all time and Morrison was without question one of the best frontman any band could hope to have. My only regret is that I never saw them perform because they were a little before my time. R.I.P. Mr. Mojo Risin'. ...I went to go see Man of Steel on Independence Day and unfortunately I have to go and see it again because I missed some parts of it. You see, the movie place we usually go to was being remodeled these past few months and in every theater they put in these soft recliner chairs that allow you to put your feet up and enjoy the show in extra comfort. Well it was a little to much extra comfort for me as I proceeded to fall fast asleep halfway into the movie. My wife tried waking me up a few times but gave up after the third time. She said it was a good thing I had those 3D glasses on because that made it hard for people to see if I was asleep or not. ...I just find it astounding that every year there's one guy who eats an amazing amount of hot dogs and does not get a stomach ache that lasts until Labor Day. A vacuum named Joey Chestnut ate 69 hot dogs (including the buns) in ten minutes to win his seventh straight contest. You would think that someone who can put away all food would be tipping the scales at over three hundred pounds but you'd be mistaken. He's a pretty thin guy considering he'd be the last person you'd want to invite over to your house for dinner. ...At the supermarket last Friday I heard an old person use the word "dude." It just sounded funny coming from someone who looked like an octogenarian. I can remember when I was a young kid when some people that age still used the word whippersnapper. ...Same supermarket, same day. While I was in the checkout I took a look at the cashier and noticed that there was a hole in her earlobes big enough to push a pen all the way through without having to force it. As I was paying for my things I was looking at it closer without trying to be conspicuous about it and I saw that there was a piece of plastic in the middle of her ear where the hole was and then I figured out that the hole she had there was no accident. I don't know if there is a name for this or not or if this is just something else to do to yourself instead of getting a tattoo. Maybe not, since she had enough of those. I swear if there was a way to drill a hole in your head and live to tell about it people like this would be standing in line to have it done.
