Well, I can certainly see the resemblance.
Yes, yes ... winter is indeed a pond upon which all of us must skate, braving frostbite and runny noses in the hopes that our cars will start and we shan't embarass ourselves slipping on a patch of black ice. Spring is more a quagmire of cold mud and slush, and fall is a pile of fallen leaves that may or may not hide a pile of doggy doo-doo. But summer, ah summer is an oasis of endless green that disappears all too quickly beneath our feet as we rush through its warm, glorious bliss.

I'm gonna have to nip that guess in the bud.

So far... none correct.
Although, I think all of the above had mustaches.

It was pure luck.
I guessed around the time frame and looked for a hispanic name.

I have worked side by side with many hispanics for the last 6 years.
I have great respect for their heritage, culture, and faith in family. I speak fairly good Spanish. I am not a bigot and do not appreciate being called one. The Abrego is a Spanish sounding name, and was born in Texas, not to mention he looks Hispanic.

You deserve at least a few bonus BCB points for this.

Good thing I didn’t — my friend is Hispanic . . .

Jeeze...
both of the pics I supplied Al went really quick (Brumley & Abrego). I thought they would go longer than they did. I guess I should have gotten pictures of even more obscure Cubs.
