I know baseball is an American pasttime, and Roger Maris is a Yankee , but he deserves the crown.

Ah, the English Disease. The only known cure is to change your loyalties, and become a Man U fan. Come to the dark side, Danny. And together we can rule the Premier league, as Man U fans.DannyM wrote:If stating a truth is hooliganism, then lock me up and give me a banning orderRickD wrote:Oh, we have a football hooligan here.DannyM wrote:All sports except Association football are minority sportsRickD wrote:Talk about a minority sport!Proinsias wrote:http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/olympic ... 243361.stm

No they never show her It's just a running gag
People will believe anything if you whisper it.

Re: Why did we never see Maris?
I think the fact that we never see her is the funniest thing about it. More than once they tease the audience and you get close to seeing her, but as the legend of Maris grows it becomes pretty clear that they just couldn't show her. After all, after years and years of talking about Maris' appearance, what actress could possibly play her?
Gags like that have been done in the past on other sit coms and in general they seem to be pretty effective. Worked well on Frasier.

Didn't we see Maris in Cheers? So long ago...I can't remember.
