Re: Sheets

Is anybody else here old enough to remember when Robin Yount signed a free agent contract? It was 1989, I think. We were all so worried that he would go to another team, then he signed, I think, a 3-year deal for $3 million. At the time, it was enormous.

And there was much rejoicing. And my brother and his roommates doused me with dishwater for not calling to tell them right away when I found out.

This was pre-Internet, of course.

I also remember when Paul Molitor signed with the Bluejays. I was driving along a California highway at about 11 at night and the only radio station I could get was a dinky sports show. I had to pull over to the side of the road for a few minutes after I heard.
