Coaching the 13-14 baseball leaugue this season. Those rascals. My shortstop was on deck with his lumber shouldered, when one of the other kids says, "Hey, Gabe - I think you got Billy Ripkened."
I shouldn't laugh when some 13 year old kid writes F**K FACE on the knob of another kid's bat, but damn - I have one of those baseball cards at home. Nothing at all to do with any content or discussions...but the fact that kids 25 years younger than I am know who Billy Ripken is - even though I'm sure it has everything to do with the F**K FACE card and nothing to do with Ripken's career as a player - is pretty great. |

Wow. Kind of sad that's Cal Ripken is the man, and his son will be forever known as F**k face :p
I remember really really REALLY wanting that card when it came out. The local dealer had it his card shop for like 99$, which when your 13 is a lot of money.

What I really like about that card is, the photo is from the season Billy and Cal played together for the O's.
That is one thousand percent a trick I'd pull on my brother, but you read up on the origin, and it's never even suggested that Cal might have been the Sharpie bomber on that one. |

I knew what this thread was about before I even read it! I so remeber that card.
By the way, Billy and Cal were brothers, and playedfor the orioles the same time that their dad Cal Sr. was the manager.
