Jemanji, My wife hardly notices the $3 a month. She might notice the $9.

Why does this site only cost $3 a month? Serious question.

Five or six years back, we charged $9 per month for our little M's site and just about everybody who woulda paid $3, paid $9.

It's a little bit like Will Smith negotiating for his movies to cost $1, all showings.

Soccer is taking up most of my month. However, I am certainly looking forward eagerly to parts 1 (although until the end of his career, I'm ot aware of where Spahn could be called "bad"), 6 (I believe I brought this comparison up), 8 (Amen!!!! if not more), 13 (along with 1959, one of his few really great seasons), 17 (pitchers played a greater role in that era than in any other, probably, since 1920), 30 (Newcombe's 1956 season was one of the luckiest in history), and 34 (Turley's 1958 season was rather fortunate as well although he certainly came through in October.)

Good subjects. Tango, I think the 29 and 40 means starts, Pedro had 29 starts in 1999, Sandy had 40 starts in 1963.

Take Care,

We can try to decipher what the article titles mean. This for example refers to the number of starts per season:

"26. Pedro vs. Koufax, or 29 vs. 40"
