This is a special staff. You start a game against a great, young pitcher knowing if you act up a bit Ms Pickens is coming to shut you up. Hoping Karen and the Ladies can bring home a Natty, a week or so before the guys get it done.

Robert Duvall was in the 1962 B&W movie "To Kill A Mockingbird" w/Gregory Peck.

Frankly...he was in a large number of many of the most significant movies over the last 75 years... (and TV with Lonesome Dove)

Many that MOST don't know...Like ONE of MY Favorites...

The Great Santini aka The Ace
