    Default Remember frank thomas?

    I remeber back in 96 this was my fav baseball player.I collected over 200 hundred of his carfds,autograph baseball and poster,books,magazines,action figs. Now he has had some bad years and is on the 15day dl,AGHHHHHH. I hope he gets it togther so my investment might be something one day. He is at 436 hr right now.He used to get atleast 40hr,100 walks,100 hits,100runs, and 100 rbi a season.

    Fuck Frank Thomas. I grew up in Chicago and he was one of my favorite players. My entire family is deep into baseball. Me and my cousin went to a Sox game and waited outside of the New Comisky [this is before it was named US Cellular Center and after they tore down the old comisky] and waited with all the other kids outside who came from the the Robert Taylor Homes [big housing project] and we finally saw him walking to his car. EVERYONE who came out earlier signed our balls and we were all going wild because we were actually going to meet Frank Thomas! He walks towards us smiling, gets 5 feet from the gate, and I looked at the kids there, waved his hand like "Fuck that" and walked off. It was only like 5 of us, EVERY white sox player that came out signed our balls and we waited like 3 hours post game. Hated that man every since for fucking with out emotions like he was going to do it.
