1995 Indians vs the 1997 Indians vs the 2016 Indians

[2 For The Brew]

I looked at recent pictures of Tawny, she looks like Carrot Top.

Looks like the daughter of Carrot Top and the Joker.

(Batman Joker, not Jokic. Don’t want to be accused of insulting Croats, they’re badasses).

Amazing thread guys, hell of a trip down memory road.
Someone mentioned the 07 Browns and it just reminded me of the year that could've been (and one thing that was/is)

My 1st and only son was born.
Indians lost ALCS after being up 3-1
Cavs make it to finals and get dominated
Browns win 10 games and can't even make the playoffs
And OSU loses not one but two national championship games to the SEC

To the point of the thread 95 was the funnest baseball year ever, 97 and 07 were years we should have won it and 16 might be the best managing I've ever seen

In looking up Winfield age, it turns out that Winfield was traded to the Indians for a dinner.

During the 1994 baseball strike, which began on August 12, Winfield was traded to the Cleveland Indians at the trade waiver deadline on August 31 for a player to be named later. The 1994 season had been halted two weeks earlier (it was eventually canceled a month later on September 14), so Winfield did not get to play for the Indians that year and no player was ever named in exchange. To settle the trade, Cleveland and Minnesota executives went to dinner, with the Indians picking up the tab. This makes Winfield the only player in major league history to be "traded" for a dinner (though official sources list the transaction as Winfield having been sold by the Minnesota Twins to the Cleveland Indians).[28]
