  • Gary. Wearing a Red Sox hat. I think my week has been made.

    QOTD – I think it REALLY has to be Oakland Raiders vs. Buffalo Bills at the dorm room of Kerry Stein on Super Tecmo Bowl, October, 1993. Epic. Gargantuan. Frozen in time.

    Great episode Gary. I wonder what the scores would have been if you did it double blind?
    QOTD: 1975 Head to Head match against my brother in Rock-um, Sock-um robots. 15 rnd split decision where the red robot controlled by me prevailed!! 😉

    What’s up with the draw?

    Thrilla in Manilla. Ali – Frazier III. There will NEVER be another one like it.

    By the way, dad hair day??

    The greatest head to head was Italy-Germany in the 1970 World Cup, won by Italy 4-3 in the extra time!

    wow, that was scary. When you asked the QOD, the first thing that popped in my mind was Wrestlemania and the Andre/Hogan bout. That was frickin’ awesome! AND, I had moss man and all of the he-man action figures. If I still had him, I’d send it.

    Oh, and by the way…..TIES SUCK!! Thanks…

    Love the BoSox hat – would love to know the story behind that one!

    Love P.R. wines – I am a member of the wine club and get the Howell Mtn as well – the shipping is killing me though.

    QOTD: Nicolai Volkoff and the Iron Sheik vs. Sgt. Slaughter and the Junk Yard Dawg, Philly Spectrum 1984.

  • QOTD: Not exactly head to head, but the ’97 Gators vs. Seminoles game was the best college football game ever. As for pure head to head competition, Tiger Woods vs. Steve Scott in the U.S. Amateur.

    BobW called it, the Thrilla in Manilla. Not counting the 1988 Olympics, how about Ben Johnson vs. Carl Lewis? Borg vs. McEnroe…yeah. Who can forget Bird vs. Johnson from their epic college meeting throughout their pro careers, that was always pure Magic.

    Ciao

  • Neil

    Pine Ridge is a great winery. I love Stag’s Leap wines – generally more Cherries, black fruit, currant, chocolate with silky tannins and a smooth finish. Could be the 2002 SLD needs more time to integrate the tannins. A tie? It could be one of those mood things: Opening day, feeling good and loving life. No matter, Oakville wines are great as well. Both solid wines.

    QOTD: Steven Stills vs Neil Young guitar solos.

    Go Giants! (SF)

    Greatest head-to-head? Any of the Gatti/Ward fights (heck, just about ANY Gatti fight).

    Can’t deny the 2000 Jets/Dolphins MNF game a ‘tie’ for first place in the ‘greatest head-to-head’ category though. Touchdown to Jumbo Elliot? You can’t make that stuff up!

    Greatest head to head battle I’ve ever seen was OH Sang Eun of Korea defeated his fellow countryman LEE Jung Woo in the 2005 US Open of Table Tennis….

    Seriously… best match by far was Wrestlemania III when Hulkamania body slammed Andre the Giant. It was AWESOME sittin 18th row for this event at the Pontiac Silverdome. Great, Great, Great match. I know you know what I’m talkin about Gary!!! Hulkster was in the ring for like 20 minutes flexing after the pin! Can I repeat AWESOME!!!!

    See ya in Chicago!!!

    QOD: I was at Gatti/Ward III where Gatti broke his hand and still won. Great call Corrado! That fight was sick.

    Cool episode today Gary. It was fresh and a little outside of the box. I know you were short on time, but it would have been a great opportunity to talk about how stags leap and oakville are different, and how that was reflected in the wines. Or how 2002 and 2003 are different. I guess you kind of let the wines speak for themselves, though, which was cool. Have fun at opening day! Go yanks.

    QOTD: Last Year, Yanks/Sox 5 game set – with the Yanks taking all 5. Happy Opening Day!! I just noticed your hat. Are you a stinking Red Sox fan? I think I need to start finding a new place to buy from, I can’t be giving my money to a Sox fan! 🙂
