One of the best O's ever. Spent his entire childhood and career with Baltimore.
Hope he isn't playing for the other side now...

The Nationals?
"Cal Ripken, whose stamina earned him the moniker the "Iron Man,"
Aka da natural steely Dan??
Umm, maybe Kelly should step back, take a breath, and rethink this...she don't know what she may be missing here- hey hey heyooooooo ain'er so there gals??
One of my favorite urban myths is that the O's canceled a game because Ripken would've missed the start after he found out Kevin Costner was banging his wife.

That Kevin Costner story has been out there for years. As an O's fan I actually enjoyed the story for its tremendous visual, if not absurd, effects!
I chuckled when I read the wife's lawyer's statement:
"Kelly has been a great mother to two fabulous children and a wonderful, faithful wife for the duration of the parties' relationship, which lasted more than 30 years," her attorney, Sanford Ain, said in a statement.A clear reference to the Costner rumor. I love it when real life is forced to respond to a great internet tale. This is up there with Benny's Myron scam, Ziggy's fake Tanned Tommy Twitter account, and Jen Lada setting up a Scoop account to refute the Coach Peters story!
I am still waiting for Richard Gere to rise up in outrage after decades of people sharing "The Gerbil" saga.
I know a doctor at Cedars who actually took the time to search the ED records to find out definitively if Gere had been admitted carrying a gerbil
many strange things have been extricated from people's orifices . imagination is a wonderful thing

i can just hear the story-well, you're not going to believe this, BUTT, i was on my way to the hunger task force for the needy and underprivileged at saint cecilia's and one thing led to another and..........
What I am outraged by is that PETA hasn't picked up the torch to end the cruel treatment of gerbils. Minks giving up their coats is nothing compared with the horrible treatment meted out to these innocent gerbils. When will these indignities be brought to an end? For the love of God WHEN?
