He ain’t a Cubs fan I ain’t either but Sammie and Ryne did a couple cool things

They were talking about this during the Cubs game the other night. Monday still has that flag in his man cave. I’m too young to remember the social aspects of that, but I would still clap if he did that today. I hope they lost the key to those two knucklehead’s cell.

I had to youtube it because I didn't remember. so me too I now like Rick Monday!

The sound of Vince Scully doing the commentary always makes me smile. I grew up in Colorado and we could get LA radio at night. I spent lots of time listening to games with my Dad with Scully painting the pictures with words.

Greatest play in baseball history. And he got a standing ovation from the fans.

It was just young folks trying to get on the map and testing the limits of freedom in 1976.
I do not condone flag burning, but If you support the first amendment. You have to allow it. Not agree with it, but allow it.
The tables should be turned and we should start call burning the flag Hate speech

Made me wonder what would happen today if I tried to burn a rainbow flag/banner in public?

Are you trying to start WW3?
How far do you think that tolerance will go?
