Share Your Memories!

Our sites have always been by you and about you. If
you check
our TV Forums or our Technology & Science forums, you'll find literally thousands of messages from fans
of 1970s TV shows, survivors of hurricanes or aircraft accidents, etc. from all over the world sharing their memories, asking
questions, making comments. Our baseball section is new, but don't let
that stop you from sharing
your memories of the first game you went to, your favorite player, a
now-forgotten stadium, etc. Of course you can also ask questions, post
trivia, tell the world what you think of Barry Bonds, or just read what
others are saying.

| | The greatest hoopstar of all time took a swing at hardball in 1994. Michael Jordan signed a minor league contract with the Chicago White Sox and reported to spring training. That summer he batted .202 with the Birmingham Barons, a class AA affiliate of the White Sox. He hit .252 for the Scottsdale Scorpions of the Arizona Fall League (see picture). His manager was Terry Francona and teammates included Nomar Garciaparra, Joe Randa, and Michael Tucker. For a a 30 year old guy with no prior professional experience, it was amazing. But because it was MJ, it was seen as a failure. | | | | Photo by Michael Ponzini, ©2006 Super70s.com | | | |
