Maybe he did ! Was that 8-10 years ago in another state ? ...The state of emotion ? :)

There should <b>always</b> be exceptions to some rules.

I wonder if Teddy Ballgame came back to life if they'd keep him out of the dugout too.

Wow.

Any chance of him coming in as a "trainer?" Maybe he could tape up a few ankles here and there.

Shouldn't there be a NEW annual thread?

I believe that's Chuck's job. Chuck?

Maybe he's waiting for first pitch of tomorrow night's game?

Or perhaps it will magically switch over at midnight.

I can understand why MLB made the rule. Some of the players were getting ridiculous with their posses in the dugout. Jason Giambi was bad with his own personal trainers a few years ago--always checking to see if he was down a pint on his roids. Barry Bonds was even worse with his his trainer, valet, shoe-shine boy, butler, etc. But when you're also stopping an icon like Pesky from sitting on the bench, then you're just getting plain stoopid imo. Somebody forgot to use their heads on this one.

Have no fear, Chuck will be here!

He'll pop outa retirement to start a new thread on opening day.

And if luck is on our side, he'll then pop right back into retirement.

87 pages has to be an all-time record for a thread.

I tend to agree with you that the Reagan exception should come into play here.

Stupid rule. Let Pesky sit in the dugout.

Teddy in action
