Well said T. Though I do think all opinions should be heard here, freedom of speach. That does not mean we have to like them Cov.

Freedom of speech is a concept much over used and much understood.

Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose.

Never owned any....saved me the trouble of having to burn them. I remember when my home state of MI. went through their " evil album burning period " when people were certain that Led Zeppelin albums contained Satanic lyrics / messages when played backwards....when in reality....they were backwards!! lol

Old Comiskey was awesome back them. You could bring your own gallons of cocktails to the game and they didn't care if you smoked weed in the stands.

Me and a buddy were talking about the double header in 77 against the Royals. The Sox were leading the division by like 6 games and they split with the Royals that day. The beginning of the end for that team. We know that we didn't take any form of public transportation, we know that probably two of our group had to drive home. We made it home in one piece, that's all that matters.

In 1977... You could do A.N.Y.T.H.I.N.G. YOUR
HEART DESIRED....
there were no cameras on every street corner or in
Every building ...
And the COPS were more stupid than that are today
Plus they loved and expected PAYOFFS and they
Protected you for the right price.
