Good morning readers. I hope you’re all having a good week thus far and aren’t clock-watching too awful much as we head toward the weekend. Since I have nothing clever to say, I’d like to reprise an oldie, but goodie feature od Thursday TMA’s…this day in history:
- The clutchiest clutchy baseball player in the history of clutch baseball players rumored to have herpes won the 1996 Rookie of the Year (Jeter, in case the context clues didn’t give it away).
- Bobby Fisher beats Boris Spassky to with Chess title in Belgrade in 1992.
- In the first NBA game at the Palace of Auburn Hills, Pistons beat Hornets 94-85 in 1988.
- Mercury Morris, former Miami Dolphin, is sentenced to 20 years for drug trafficking, conspiracy, and possession of cocaine in 1981 (conviction overturned in 1986).
- The 1971 LA Lakers win the first game of a 33-game winning streak.
- The 1933 Chicago Bears lose 10-0 to the Patriots…ending a 30-game winning streak.
Aight, onto the links…
