Well, that was some Ball Saxbury tonight …

We definitely need to try and get the band back together for the playoffs … maybe if we make it past the WC game? That way everyone would have a chance (well, at least a few) to drop in …

Oh, seems I missed some old school Banter chat going on! Be cool if some of those old timers show up for the WC game.

Jim Dean…that’s a crazy story…

Well, Charleston and Michigan are no’s, and Cleveland is taking its time. But I did bank two months of vacation, so I have some time.

Thanks.

Night all. Dogs to park in morning, then more house cleaning. Game at 4 pm

I forget who here said it, but it’s one of my favorite things ever. Might’ve been Bronx big in nc or just fair…

I remember when one of the rotating Yankee broadcasters said he read Yankee blogs, including the Banter. Was it Leiter?

I gave Cliff 2 or 3 drum lessons in NYC. That was a blast. He’ll prolly be back on MLBN this offseason!

I became close with the Yankees organist, who used to comment here sometimes and always read the game threads. Hell, he was at my wedding!!

We used to have a Bronx Banter shirt idea too. I think it was a score truck on the front and a bunch of our lexicon/argot on the back. We’ve had some good lines here for sure.

3rd Basement. Tooptimistic. I wasn’t on the recent thread, but read the gouble digits.

[74]) You mean country and western?

And yes, Western Swing is distinct from Country. More big bandish
