I was never a big Seaver fan as I was from Texas and a little to young to really watch him in his prime. But after he took those bows, I became a fan.

I have the Hall & Oates version and a cover by a good band called Explorers Club as well. Good song.

Too many years ago!<br /><br />Cosby's was happy because it would customize jerseys. This was before you could order them online. I don't like to buy jerseys with someone else's name on the back -- unless they are game worn, but that's a whole different thing. But I also don't like to put my own name on the back. But, when a player has my name, then it's OK! <br /><br />I do in fact read Uniwatch each morning!<br /><br /><br /><br />Mets Guy in Michiganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04048899230969074579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11386152.post-50980580679946810232016-09-22T12:21:05.200-04:002016-09-22T12:21:05.200-04:00I lived in Barnard Hall which shared a food common...I lived in Barnard Hall which shared a food commons with Tate. Thanks for the memories. If CMU had been smart, they would have sold off bricks to past residents when they demolished the buildings.

I have several questions:<br /><br />1) Where did you get the 1986 patch you sewed on? Who sewed it on? I realize it was 30 years ago, but I am interested in that patch.<br /><br />2) You mention that Cosby's was happy when Eddie Murray became a Met...what did you mean by that?<br /><br />3) Do you read Uni Watch? Think you might.<br /><br />SteveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11386152.post-71743218646080589292016-05-10T00:58:33.801-04:002016-05-10T00:58:33.801-04:00I was about 8 or 9 at a met game and Jeffries stru...I was about 8 or 9 at a met game and Jeffries struck out.
