She was a huge Nittany Lions fan and booster. He had a picture of her with a hat on that said "Penn State will have Miami by the Testaverdes". After they beat Miami she sent my roommate a hat that played the Penn State fight song if you pushed a button under the brim. I hated that damn hat!!
      Your roommates Grandma was hilarious! I would have loved that hat she wore, or the one with our schools fight song!

      Ironically, even though I went to PSU for my first degree and bleed blue and white, one of my best friends from college was a huge Georgia Tech fan...so go figure. Guess attending a school does not automatically make everyone a fan; but since my Dad was a huge Joe PA and Nittany Lions fan long before I ever took a class at PSU, it was easy for me.

        Not exactly my favorite cover, but can anyone guess why this regional Sports Illustrated cover was eventually pulled from circulation back in '96 ?:

          Was it because Cal looks a little to excited to be on the cover??

            So, I see three potential reasons, which may all be wrong.

            1) Is that an Oriole in your front pocket, Cal, or are you happy to be "pointing" to into '96?

            2) Biggest jerks just happens to be above Roberto Alomar's picture?

            3) No JR. in Cal Ripken Jr.'s name?

              Here's my favorite. Not for the image as much as it pissed the feminist groups off so much.

              Along those lines, hope my choice doesn't offend anyone.

                    Here's a couple of favorites in my collection including a signed Mickey Mantle Street & Smith baseball yearbook and signed Tiger Woods Sports Illustrated.

                    Thanks,
