This week's Uni Watch article on ESPN.com is on "Uniform cameos" - brief appearances by players in uniforms that we usually don't associate with that player.  RBIers mentioned:
Nolan Ryan (Mets)
Ryne Sandberg (Phillies)
Roger Clemens (Blue Jays - their position was that even though he was there for a couple years, it still seemed odd seeing him in that uniform)
Ozzie Smith (Padres)
Kirk Gibson (Royals, Pirates)
Reggie Jackson (Orioles)
Darryl Strawberry (Giants)
Jose Canseco (Red Sox, Blue Jays, Devil Rays, Yankees, White Sox, Expos, Angels)
Gary Carter (Giants, Dodgers)
Dwight Gooden (Indians, Devil Rays, Astros)
I'm Keith Hernandez (Indians)
Dale Murphy (Rockies)

Wade Boggs' stint with the Devil Rays probably should've made the list, too.

Tony Dorsett played for the Broncos??  I don't remember that at all. 

BeefMaster

I remember that, mostly because he was on the Broncos in the original Tecmo Bowl.

I was surprised to learn that Dorsett played for the Cowboys. As a kid, I only knew he played for the Broncos because that's the way it was in Tecmo, like Beef said.

the dude either has some high float or a mess between the cheeks.

I don't remember canseco on the Red Sox at all.  I can't believe people don't associate Nolan Ryan with the mets.  '69 Mets and his Rookie year.  Come on.

Ryan's first year was 66 and his "rookie" season was in 1968...

I don't really remember Cansco on the Red Sox either...

The Raiders are a successful organization

When I was a kid I also thought that the world used to be in black and white because old shows/movies were in black and white.
