I had gone to games along the way but outside of the Astros I really wasn't clued in on stuff. Wasn't long ago I heard that Jim Thome had 600 homers. I really felt like Rip Van Winkle.<br /><br />@jim LOL at Bob Duliba I remember everyone called him 'Ach Duliba'.

For example circle 1 could be "all my baseball card knowledge", circle 2 could be "everything else I know", and circle 3 is "stuff that's actually important".
