DaHop is having computer issues, so he asked me to post Richard Simmons for him.:eek:

I told him I didnt think Richard Simmons really meet the qualifications, but he was pretty adamant about it, so I just agreed to post it for him. So here it is DaHop.:devil:

You are right. I pump my iron at the AW facilities.:D Dahop is stirring the pot. BTW you ought to see Dahop playing golf in his personally autographed Richard Simmons blue/white silk shorty shorts. He is so proud of them. Especially when he wears the matching tube socks.:taunt: :taunt:

I read a book about Lou Gehrig when I was in about the 5th grade. Checked it out of the school library. I probably read that book about 10 times. I guess because of that, he has always been one of my favorites too.

Not that old but remember Jimmy Wynn. Monster power & a little guy. Went upper tank at Dome along with a few others. Astros retired #24 jersey a few years back too. Great player & supposed to be good guy.

Me too! The Red Rooster was also a favorite. Did you ever see the seats that marked their home run blasts?

I have met Biggio, great guy, Jose Lima, outstanding... I remember meeting Mike Barber along time ago...he was great...my favorites would have to be Johnny Bench... my dad used to work for a company that sold Ingersoll Rand products and Johnny Bench was a spokesman I guess, because every year we used to get to go to two Reds/Astros games and eat lunch and have a chat session with Johnny Bench and he would take us on the field and we would get to meet players... he was AWESOME!!!!

I also like Novacek, ALex Brown and Brian Urlacher
