This NES RBIer was nicknamed The Whale.

I hope this isn't common knowledge because I had never heard it.

Correct

Here's another, Name the RBIer who is talked about in this statement:

One day after the [team name] made four errors in a game, his team played an error-free game. [RBIer name] smiled in his postgame interview and said: "No errors! We get pizza!" He then walked out the door and was fired. Those were his final words as manager.

Jose Canseco and Mark McGwire.

You guys are awful at this game.

Title: Re: Name the player
Post by: fknmclane on 11/01/06, 12:23:13 AM

I thought Jose came in the league a year or two earlier. Were they really rookies together?

Title: Re: Name the player
Post by: Attezz on 11/01/06, 12:25:40 AM

Technically, Canseco's rookie year was 86 and McGwire's was 87, but McGwire and Canseco both played together in 86 and were most likely featured on a card together.

Thanks for not throwing a fit in this thread.

WTF? First of all, McGwire's rookie is 1985 Topps. Canseco has two 1986 rookie cards (Donruss and Fleer)...and if I recall correctly, Eric Plunk is on the other side of Jose's Fleer rookie--not McGwire.

Title: Re: Name the player
Post by: Big Apple RBI Champ on 11/06/06, 11:01:38 AM

I was looking for Trammell and Molly, but it looks like there were others. Nice job all. I don't think Canseco and Big Mac were on the same card, however the Clark, Rupperto card looks legit.

I know who it is, but people will assume that I cheated because it's very unlikely, even though when he came into the league he was regarded as one of the fastest players in the league and he was always an excellent hitter

Not Willie, and yes Attez knows who it is but in 1980 he was not very fast and he still got slower after that.

OH YEAH!

Joe, if it's only 4 people we can do it at my apt, but I don't have a NES so you'd have to bring one with all the fixin's (controllers, cartridge, wires)

Title: Re: Name the player
Post by: Big Apple RBI Champ on 11/20/06, 11:46:57 AM

Let's do the 9th then so we can get fknmclain in.

I live all the way downtown. You uptown? My friend lives down here too. He has 2 tv's including a sweet LCD 42"er, plus he has 2 NES's so you guys should come down if you don't mind.

Title: Re: Name the player
Post by: Big Apple RBI Champ on 11/20/06, 11:58:14 AM

Crap. The guy who will host is going to be away Dec 9 weekend.

I might be able to find someone else, although his place is perfect due to 2 NES's etc.

Do you have anyone for Dec 2?

Title: Re: Name the player
Post by: GDavis on 11/20/06, 12:28:23 PM

Just shot an email to my cousin. I'll let you know. Either way I'd be down for the 2nd.

Hey GDavis, I have a Holiday Party to go to way the f**k uptown (181st St) at 6 that night so I suppose no reason to make you come all the way downtown, although then again I don't want to carry 2 NES systems, so maybe we have no choice. Let me know when you definitely have a second guy.

He's in DC, but he gave me email addy of other guys that were at your tourney last year. I'll see if they are up for it.

If not, we can have a three man tourney. I just want to beat you... I don't need the fanfare of a full-fledged tournament.
