Tiger, MJ, Ripken, Jerry Rice, Montana, Ray

[bnickle]

I was never a Ripken fanboy like so many Os fans. Respect and appreciate his contributions but not a fanboy. I was in the tank for Mussina. 

[NewMarketSean]

Cal Ripken for sure. Many people used to say I looked like him when I was younger...not so much now. Lol When everyone else was a Jordan fan, I rooted for Karl Malone. Gotta love LA Gear. Loved Ray Lewis. Jamal Lewis. Ogden. The now old school Ravens. Man that sounds strange to say. Juan Dixon. Also really like Vlad Guerrero...really wish we'd have signed him when he was in his prime. Special player.

[Icterus galbula]

Raffy was my favorite O on the 90's teams.

My avatar is my favorite Raven of all time, naturally.

 

Non-local, Randy Johnson was my favorite baseball player. 6'10, gross haired, acne scarred dude throwing 95 MPH sliders at you sideways.

[Pedro Cerrano]

Do you ever think about the fact that a man the size of JO was actually passed through a human body?

Crazy.

I've been drinking
