Since I'm a dunce when it comes to movies, I'm glad you switched the topic to baseball.
However, I have to think Judge Reinhold gets about as much respect here as Jim Rice gets for the Hall. How about his role as Private Elmo Blum? And I would have to think Bill Murray as Dr. Peter Venkman (the first time), John Winger and Carl Spackler should make the roster as well.
About Last Night - I just wanted to point out, how would you like to be Joe Smith? He comes in, faces one batter, gets a double play groundball out of Ruiz and ends up with a loss.
On Johan, he has been known to ask out of games in Minnesota. I'm not sure if that happened last night, but he's done it before.

Oh.. Phil's brother.. to answer your question (for me personallY)-- I aced high school, played varsity volleyball, slept longer than i can nowadays (if I am afforded the luxury) and kept up with the best '80's movies AND music.
If they resurrected 'Name that Tune' for the '80's-- I'd win easily. |

| Top notch list sir. I would really have liked to see Elizabeth McGovern (Racing the Moon, She's Having A Baby and the classic Once Upon A Time In America) on the bench. She's a heady kid of the 80's that would really help manufacture a few runs here and there. |

| Phanatic, Reinhold does warrant some consideration but I don't really consider Bill Murray a teen comedy star. I did like your "about last night" segue though. As for Santana, despite what he did or didn't do in Minnesota, he should know by now that, with the Mets, if you want the sure "W" you need to stay in the game as long as you can. Grote, I absolutely love Elizabeth McGovern. Why did she disappear and Elizabeth Perkins stick around? According to wiki she's now living in London and recording music. Maybe Rex O'Rourke can cut a single with her. |

| The Phanatic is going for the title of our newest, bestest buddy and big toe with the Private Elmo Blum reference (I assume your going Stripes, right? I never knew his character had a name). I don't know how, but the Elizabeth McGovern reference led me Chris Penn there's got to be a space on the team for a guy who got around the bases with a teen age Carrie Bradshaw when she was just an Indiana(?) farm girl in Footloose. And how about Steve Guttenberg who was soooo bad in everything he ever did that he's the guy who couldn't even make "A" ball. |
