Germany and Argentina are close, right?

I can just take an extended vacation and visit those two places and catch 4 former Tigers.

I wonder what happen to Jimmy McKinney’s tryout with the Cardinals….I’m sure everyone is just as surprised as I am that it didn’t work out.

Seriously, though, I have to wonder if he would have been playing pro ball here in states if Quin was not his coach. Imagine what MANderson could have done with a talent like that!

ARGH! That name...

I hate that Q word.

Nobody EVER got better under Quin. Nobody. Paulding, Rush, McKinney… nobody ever left CoMO better than they enrolled as a frosh.
