He's also such a bad friend that he sleeps with the girl his (only) friend is clearly smitten with. Plus he doesn't even have Blue Oyster Cult tickets.

I think Billy will only play material he recorded on the records so this is probably just John and Exene's way to play some of the mellower stuff to a hopefully receptive audience without being billed as X.

And 2 more Cokes.

The West Coast get John and Exene and we get Deap Vally? Lame.

Ah, then there will be no Happiness for you.

Yeah, Cobb got his number in about 3000 fewer AB's. No knock on Rose, he was a hell of a player but Cobb was in that upper upper tier of Hall of Famers that only has a handful of members.

I read about Chili's in Small Business magazine. It's where business happens.

Just cross that NH border and you're good to go!

Yeah, in terms of being a competitive nutbag, Rose is up there but even at his best, he never came close to Cobb's numbers. Only a few people ever did. (Speaker, Joe Jackson, Hornsby)

Yeah, Waddell is an interesting one. By all accounts, there were serious mental health issues there that alcohol only worsened but his strikeout totals for that era are off the charts.

Presumably Rob Lowe does have Perfect Skin so it fits.

The World Series they played in has the weird detail of the commissioner removing a player from the game due to safety concerns. After Joe Medwick slid hard into third and took out a Tigers player, the Detroit fans showered him with debris when he came out to LF in the bottom of the inning. Judge Landis forced the…
