"IN THE BEGINNING"....

The '93 'Screaming' Leaf #177... Once upon a time, long, long ago, BradyKat & BradyLady were yard saleing. Looking for Ripken cards for Lil' Ripper. Never really knowing of a Man named BRADY. As BradyKat & BradyLady went through box after box, card after card, they stumbled upon the '93 'Screaming' Leaf Card of a Man named BRADY! "Oh My!" BradyLady exclaimed to BradyKat. Do you know who this is? He's on the same team as Cal.
BradyKat replied, he thought that might be the O's Lead-off hitter, as he heard their Lead-off hitter was a 'hollywood-handsome' looking guy with 'Elvis-burns'. BradyLady asked the owner of the cards, how much ya want for this? The owner said, how 'bout a buck? "Gladly!" BradyLady exclaimed as she reached into her yard sale purse of quarters. BradyLady & BradyKat left that yard sale now having a favorite player of their own... A Man Named BRADY!!!! Here it is now, a few years later & they've amassed the largest BRADY ANDERSON Card Collection, with more than 1500 cards! And not a 1 of them can hold a sideburn to the '93 'Screaming' Leaf #177. And oh ya, we did find a Cal, or 2 for Lil' Ripper. ;-)

BRADYBALL!!
5/2/03: Brady gets his UNconditional release from the Padres. He left with a 294 avg, 455 ob%, 5-6 swipes, a double, a triple & No errors. Is this the end of 'BradyBall', or will Brady be back? See what the 'Man' himself says in the O's HOF articles below...

Anderson swings back into town as O's Hall of Famer Looking same, he feels he has a few homers left By Jeff Zrebiec and Roch Kubatko
Sun Staff
Originally published August 21, 2004
The physical traits that once made him one of baseball's most feared leadoff hitters have not abandoned Brady Anderson. Nor have his trademark ELVIS sideburns.
Even at age 40, Anderson, who will become the 41st member of the Orioles Hall of Fame this weekend, looks every bit like the player who once set a club record by hitting 50 home runs in 1996. And apparently, he feels like it, too.
"I still feel like I can play," said Anderson, who will be inducted with the team's longtime umpires' attendant, Ernie Tyler, before today's game. "I don't miss the routine so much, but I feel like I shortchanged myself. ... [My career] definitely didn't end with me having the success I wanted, and that was frustrating. It makes me still want to play at times."
Anderson's 14-year tenure as one of the organization's most popular players ended when he was released in November 2001 after hitting .202. He's been out of baseball since the San Diego Padres waived him from their Triple-A affiliate last year.
Since then, the Orioles' all-time leader in steals (307) - he also ranked in the top five in hits (1,614), runs (1,044), doubles (329), home runs (209) and total bases (2,698) when released - is far removed from the game. Anderson assists in raising his 1-year-old daughter, Brianna, in California and stays in shape through rigorous workouts. "I feel like this is a nice reward,"Anderson said. "I don't sit around and think about what I did in the past too much, but it's nice to be remembered that I had a good career."
Introduced at yesterday's luncheon at the Wyndham Hotel by close friend Cal Ripken, Anderson mixed self-reflection with some humor. "I had a brief panic attack at home, wondering if anybody would show up for this," Anderson said. "It was sort of like that dream when you were walking around in public naked."
Allowing the laughter to subside, Anderson turned to Hall of Famer Jim Palmer, seated to his right, and said, "Jim Palmer is probably thinking to himself, 'I love that dream.'"
The comment may have been payback for Palmer's suggestion this spring that Anderson's power surge in 1996 was open to scrutiny because it was such an aberration, and without drug testing, there's no way to know whether he used steroids.
Turning serious, Anderson called the steroid accusations about him "unfortunate."
"I think some baseball players get accused unfairly," he said. "I don't think you should get accused of steroids if you perform well. The numbers that say 65 to 70 percent [use steroids] are ridiculous. People will find that out when the test results come in." Now, Onto the MLB HOF!!
