FAQs

At least I think they should be.

Cycle alerts

Yellow alert - Player needs triple for cycle
Orange alert - Player needs double for cycle
Red alert - Player need single for cycle

If a player needs a home run for the cycle, the level of the alert varies depending upon the determination of the Cycle Detection Warning System, which is headquartered in Thief River Falls, Minnesota.

i was back to work less than a week after mine.

Can you at least get out of heavy lifting for a while?

Bernie Williams had one in spring training a couple of years back. As I recall he was back in action before ST was over and broke camp with the team. I think it's a two-week DL stint and that's that. Didn't Chipper Jones have one recently, or am I making things up now.

Actually I worked with a guy who had appendicitis and he got to keep his appendix. He got a big dose of antibiotics and the infection went away.

I want to keep all of my vestigial organs. I'm quite attached to my prehensile tail.

I'm quite attached to my prehensile tail.

Prehensile? You mean you can grab things with it? I can see why you're attached to it.

I have an apprehensile tail; it lets me know when something bad is about to happen.

Kayaker,

Yes ... many years ago, Bob led his little league team in fielding percentage thanks to that prehensile tail.

(then came that unfortunate "shoplifting" incident) :-)

The prehensile tail of course works in to the whole "X Man" theme.

Ladies and gentlemen ...
