One of my childhood heroes, Tug McGraw, died at age 59. They say he'll be remembered as a Phillie, but not for Mets fans. "McGraw coined the phrase Ya gotta believe! during the New York Mets' 1973 season and carried the slogan until he died." BTW, the Philadelphia Inquirer has an RSS feed. And Pete Rose now admits he bet on baseball, so please, let's get him in the Hall of Fame while he's still alive. Ask the fans, we want to honor the best hitter of all time. For all his moral weakness, there was a reason he was called Charlie Hustle.

The popup menu in the right margin of Scripting News now has a link to the Top-100 feeds page. BTW, I think it's really cool that when I take a screen shot that the coffee marks on my screen don't get copied.
