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.

--Patrick Mondout



 

RED SOX

Carl Yastrzemski made his 7th All-Star team, finished 4th in MVP voting, finished second in batting at .329, and finished first in runs, on-base percentage, total bases, and slugging. Oh, and he found time to visit the Oval Office to pick up the All-Star game MVP trophy from President Nixon.
