The History of the Negro Southern Leagues
Rickwood Field was vital to the Negro Southern Leagues and professional baseball in the South.
Known as the Oldest Baseball Park in America, Birmingham's Rickwood opened on Aug. 18, 1910, when the hometown Birmingham Barons beat the visiting Montgomery Climbers.
In the 114 years since, more than 100 members of the National Baseball Hall of Fame have roamed Rickwood's outfield and circled its bases, including such Rickwood legends as Satchel Paige, Willie Mays and Reggie Jackson.
This rich history is highlighted at the Birmingham Negro Southern Museum where we got to sit down with Interim Director, Anthony Williams to learn more in this video presented by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alabama.

    Just to be clear, I also love fried bologna, but it is never better than any other biscuit. Now Since we are talking forced meats, the process by which bologna is made, then a thick cut spam, fried*, biscuit would be near the top of the board.

    Matthew, I gotta admit, you were scaring me toward the end. "Wait, is he not even going to have Sweet Heat Barbecue?" But you, sir, have redeemed yourself. Yes friends, Golden Flake Sweet Heat Barbecue is what all other potato chips dream of being, the absolute epitome, numero uno, chippus maximus, say no more. Thus does Arkansas report in. Well done!

    "I don't taste a lot of dill pickle on it". That's the key - a little, teeny tiny bit of dill goes a long way. I just got some "spicy dill pickle' peanuts that are inedible, and while I hate to admit sacrilege I like Moxie (delivered in the dead of night in a brown paper bag), just to prove strong flavor is not an inherent obstacle. No spicy. No pickle - they didn't ever whisper vinegar to these peanuts. Just DILL, dill to the tenth power. That night I dreamed I....no too gruesome, I'll spare you. Now a properly fried dill pickle is a joy, but these damn Yankees and their lack of understanding how spices work.....bless their hearts.

    What if the forest wasn't in the Gulf originally, what if that was a large segment of ground that was washed into the Gulf? That would explain the buried trees as well as the large segment where they could see the river bed. I do find it hard to believe that sedamentation hasn't buried it if it's that old. 12-14K seems to be reasonable, 50K, how would it not be buried?
