and that fucker is huge! you wouldnt expect a shortstop to be so tall. he was my height (6'5"). and was at least 230 lbs. reallly surprised me. really nice guy though.
wow you hung out with someone your age, congrats!
Thanks for sharing. I am very impressed.
Oh wait, I'm not?
I really wish you had friends so you wouldn't share stuff like this with us hoping for our appraisal of your mediocrity.
I am properly impressed and awed. Cal was my hero growing up, and I have never met him.
I don't think you're impressed or awed. I think you're jealous.
I also would venture to guess that had you met Cal Ripken, you would not have boasted about it here.
The sports forum is gonna meet this thread in 3 seconds.
I met Cal Ripkin. I said "You got the same name as that baseball player guy! Cool!"
it wasnt a boast about meeting cal, it was a commentary about how surprised i was at how tall he was, especially for a shortstop.
I met Al Pacino several times and I was surprised how short he was but even more surprised when some crazed autograph hound ran up to his limo and opened the door, before mr. pacino was ready to exit.
I was even more surprised when I saw Al yell at the fan as he stumbled out the limo and had a strange white residue on his nostrils.
sammy sosa is even more massive than i expected in person.
cal ripken is a shortstop who isn't short. LOL!
