In 1982, I had a sudden fascination with the game of baseball. That was all because of this man: Ryne Sandberg. In fact, I wrote about him (and my one-season love of America's pastime) in My Life as a Misfit. Thank you, Ryne, for a great year :-)
Other Rs in the 80s:
Rubric's Cube
Record Player
Rick Springfield (who also has a cameo, so to speak, in the book)
Rad (as in: "those legwarmers are totally rad")
Return of the Jedi
Rosanne
Romantics
Risky Business
What or who am I missing?
Go Cubbies!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in college, we went to a spring training game and I brushed past Ryne on his way to the field. I was so excited! :)
