Nolan Ryan vs. Robin Ventura
I hated Robin Ventura with a passion after this. Nolan Ryan is THE man. Today, he signed on to be the president of the Texas Rangers organization. God, it will take a miracle to turn that crummy organization around. But, if anyone can do, this man can contribute.

In Nolan Ryan's last years with the Rangers, you could occasionally catch him on TV selling Advil.
There's a Hooter's on N. Collins located about a mile from the Ballpark in Arlington. (I refuse to use the corporate bought-and-paid-for-name in regard to that beautiful cathedral of baseball...)
Anyway, the morning after the Ryan/Ventura dustup, the wags at Hooter's had a sign posted out front saying "Now who needs Advil, Ventura?"
I nearly drove off the road I was laughing so hard!
Funny thing about that stretch of road... the Black Eyed Pea restaurant across the street from Hooters burned one night, and the next day someone (probably the Hooter's sign people) hung a large letter over the BEP sign so that it read "Blackened Pea".
Yup, nearly rolled off the road again...

Oh, by the way...
Did you get the expressed written consent of Major League Baseball *before* you posted this?
