I had a Cubs baseball card upside down on top of my TV for game 7 of the 2003 NLCS.

This time I will try it right side up.

Lately, after eating a lunchmeat sandwich I feel like I have to hurl. I'm fine with anything else.
I don't know if it's the bread or what. I love a fresh lunchmeat sammich!

Do you go to old school Italian deli's for your sandwich items? I love those places that are equal parts grocery store and deli.

I have Valli's by me and they make a god-awful sub.Something is just off. Mariano's idea of a sub is 1 LB of meat between a giant sized bread loaf,it's terrible.

Great call on the Samuel Smith's, Ron.

Jimmy, who's baseball card is it?

I'm guessing Joe Wallis.
