He was/is an interesting guy, discussing politics and a lot of other stuff, not just baseball. ...

One of my fondest memories was riding around one sping in Kennesaw, GA in his "Sky Blue" volvo. It reminded me of the Nick Nolte/Eddie Murphy movie, but it was a caddy in the flick.

I remeber that day, Coach Cochran had us do some crazy things but always had us ready to play. This is his 39th season. Thanks for the recall Chunkin Badens (what is chunkin badens). Chunkin if you coach or work with players you need to get The Art of Catching by Brent Mayne, it's worth every peso ! p.s. Morganna would be sent to Guantanamo these days for terroristic actions;just not as many colorful characters as back in the day, but I still love the game and there was nothing better than being Maynerds caddy back in the Foxworthy League !

Saw you sling that pus deluxe to second one night in Huntsville too. K Reese, saw you play in a split squad game in BB City late 80’s or early 90’s; I’ve seen better arms on a chair.

Stuff from Bera etc... K. Reese, I saw you on the blog. I assume you are Kyle Reese who went to North Cobb HS in Cobb County, GA? I remember when your club came to our park and your coach had you bang metal bats on trees making some kind of "tribal" noise.... Reese, I remember you specifically because it was a cloudy overcast day and you had on eye black! Hey Brent, I work with a guy named Shane Flores, a former college teamate of yours. I told Shane about the site, but I think he forgot to check it out. Shane works in our Anaheim office, great guy, had wonderful things to say about you and your dad. Thought you might want to give Shane a little shout out. sflores@interstaterestoration.com. Ok, back to you Reese, you did not intimidate me with that eye black pal!
