    Steve, Don't know if you can appreciate this or not but my dad's first cousin is Jerry Coleman, 2nd baseman, Rookie of the Year, played in the 50's with all those guys. He gave an uncle of mine one of his World Series rings. How's that for cool? E.

    In other words, I'm practically related to Mantle. ;-) E.

    That is very cool! I've never been an American League fan, but I can recognize and appreciate greatness when I see it. Rub the ring for me. S
