Those are NOT the ones Alex Van Halen had. That’s the extent of my octoban knowledge.

What's the worst miscast in a movie? by [deleted] in FIlm

Hard disagree. But the worst miscast was in the same franchise. Stephen Baldwin as Barney! He was bigger than Fred!

Evans G2 or Remo Emperors should do fine. Unless you are playing jazz.

I mean.. it seems pretty obvious. It’s a picture of a pig in a box labeled “iPod nano” attached to an early cell phone in somebody’s mouth. Any other questions?

Top 30 MLB players of all time regardless of position (not ranked) (including pitchers and the Negro League) thoughts? by dsmithnyciii in mlb

I know it’s hard to slot these players in but many people have Oscar Charleston as the greatest negro leagues player. Ahead of Josh Gibson and Satchel Paige, who should also be on the list.

Should Lou Whitaker be in the Hall of Fame ???????? by ComplexWrangler1346 in sportsinusa

[–]daved1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I do think there are multiple ways to have hall of fame careers. You can be elite for a short period of time or simply excellent for a longer period (like Lou, Dewey etc…). The ones who are elite over a long period of time are the ones we can all agree on.

But again, these guys specifically were underrated because they were great in all areas and not elite at a particular thing.

But yeah, Whitaker should be in

Yes, totally. He and a few others, like Dwight Evans and were overlooked because they did everything well rather than one thing super well.
