I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

  • The 1975 Chicago Winds
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 10, No. 2 (1988) THE 1975 CHICAGO WINDS by Tod Maher The Chicago Winds entered the 1975 season much like the other ten members of the World Football League – battle-scarred but hopeful. The Winds began life as the Chicago Fire, a 7-13 finisher in the Central Division of the financially-weak World Football League. The Fire was owned by Tom Origer, one of the few stable owners in otherwise rocky inaugural WFL season. It was Origer who helped push league founder Gary Davidson (father of the American Basketball Association and the World Hockey Association) into resigning as league president the year before. In his place was Chris Hemmeter, part- owner of the Hawaiians. It was his austere financial program for the 1975 season that was dubbed the Hemmeter Plan. Gone too in 1975 was Origer himself. Origer was a $750,000 victim of the WFL's first season. Origer was replaced by real estate man Eugene Pullano as the principal owner. Pullano's first order of business was the hiring of former AFL quarterback Vito "Babe" Parilli as head coach and general manager of the newly-christened Winds. Parilli the New York-Charlotte entry in the WFL to a 10-10 record the year before. Pullano next offered a $4 million contract to New York Jets quarterback Joe Namath. Namath reportedly considered the offer seriously, but eventually turned down the lucrative offer. After opening up the exhibition season with a 43-23 loss to the Jacksonville Express, Pullano surprised everyone by firing Parilli. A furious Parilli claimed he had a contract "for life." Parilli was soon replaced by Leo Cahill as the general manager, and by Abe Gibron at the head coach position.

  • Indians Announce '16 Player-Development
    Indians announce '16 player-development staff By Jordan Bastian / MLB.com | @MLBastian | January 11th, 2016 CLEVELAND -- John McDonald spent the better part of two decades putting dazzling defense on display on the big league stage. The Indians announced Monday that the former shortstop will now be charged with helping mold the developing infielders within their farm system. McDonald, who served as a special assistant to player development last year for Cleveland, will take over as the Tribe's Minor League infield coordinator this year. According to a release by the ballclub, the 41-year-old McDonald will be "the primary resource to Minor League coaches in the implementing and monitoring of individual infielder player plans." The Indians selected McDonald in the 12th round of the 1996 Draft, and he turned himself into one of baseball's elite infield defenders over the course of a 16-year career, which included parts of seven seasons with Cleveland. Dating back to 1990, McDonald is one of only 10 shortstops to register at least 51 Defensive Runs Saved. The Indians have also hired former pitcher Bruce Chen, who retired in 2015 after a two-start stint with Cleveland, to be a Minor League cultural development coordinator. Chen pitched in 17 seasons in the Majors with 11 teams, appearing in 400 games. Chen -- a native of Panama who speaks multiple languages -- will assist all organizational players in the transition to professional baseball, with a focus on Latin-born players. Cleveland also announced Triple-A Columbus manager Chris Tremie, Double-A manager Dave Wallace and Class A Advanced Lynchburg manager Mark Budzinski will all return to the same role in 2016.
