Before this site was a place for message boards, it was more directed towards news and information. A forum section was added in the late 90's and I'll try to include as many screenshots as possible of that, after we cover the main…

What Marlin clocked what coach in the face & for what reason? What Marlin was rewarded a gift (necklace) from Loria and for what accomplishment? What player requested a trade after a fire sale? What band was used for Heath Bells entrance as a closer? What Marlin celebrated winning the World Series by rapping freestyle during their parade? My questions usually consist of odd ball memories so flaws are to be expected. Thanks for all your love and support.

I'm a big fan of the BIFL (buy it for life) subreddit and there's always some fun stuff on there from brands you may not have heard of being recommended. Figured I'd ask if any of you good people, and Das, might have any ideas on good quality products you can buy that are $25 and under. Doesn't have to be anything specific - just stuff you use that has held up very well and can still be purchased for about $25 or less. One of my personal favorites is a Lamy Safari rollerball pen. I am very, very particular on which pens I will write with but I love their pens. I got mine for about $18 and still use it and carry it with me all the time.
