Around SBN: The Most Dangerous Division in Sports

Someone at Topps didn't know, or didn't bother to find out, that the Phillies retired #32 -- long ago -- for Steve Carlton.

Roy Halladay will wear #34 for them.

Probably not.

Some men learn through what they read. Some men learn through what they're told. Some men have to piss on the railroad tracks. And some men keep on pissin'.

Either way,

The picture on the card tells us more about that than I think any of us wanted to know.

Who cares if he's a Cubs fan? This is a football forum! He is a PACKER fan as well. So, from now until March, I’m sure he’ll dedicate a lot of his time here. In late March, then we can be enemies during the baseball season. Besides, the Cubs have perhaps the most loyal baseball fanbase in the country. You have to respect that.

Go Pack!
