$285 a bottle last time I drooled over one

Yup, ain't cheap. I've seen the 200mL for as low as 90. But the one that comes in the wood case is usually around that. You can get green at a bevmo for about 45.

AWESOME MOVIE!!!!!!! It was an HBO original. Titled "Cobb"

Too bad that writer that roled with him was a hack and made up 90% of his book (which the movie was based on -- Robert Wuhl played the author).

Much of the lore around Cobb is false. He wasn't a racist, mean, hated by his teammates, cranky etc. It was all baseball lore that grew out of control. That hack didn't help, but he got exposed for the fraud that he was.

Still an awesome movie, tho, Melon

Thats always the case with celibrities...the stories get blown way out of shape.

Ain't that the truth, one day I'll tell you about the time I was on the cover on Sports Illustrated.

Yup. The spotlight is no joke.

It's disgusting how tarnished Cobb's name is. People still think all that junk about him.

There's a very recent biography made by an author who couldn't take the illegitimate critical sensationalism of Cobb any longer. He did tons and tons of research. I haven't gotten it, I have too many other books to read, but I will one day.

I'll look it up and let you know what it's called, Melon

It is a fantastic film about the race by Roger Maris to break Ruth's record of 60. Produced by Billy Crystal (a huge Yankee fan). Accurate story, gripping (deals a lot with Mantle's exploits off the field -- they were teammates at the time, as was Berra and some other greats).

Thomas Jane (The Punisher) and Barry Pepper (a **** ton of movies) star in it as Mantle and Maris, respectfully.

Another HBO original.

Yeah, there's different versions. Just like Cristal.

I am interested in that other event in your family also. You mentioned it on another thread a few days ago?
