    Christmas Gift Idea with Tech connection

    Guys and gals,

    While looking up a replica baseball jersey for myself, I ran across a Tech related jersey for those of us who love Tech history:

    The Pittsburgh Stogies was the last team Tech Alum Rebel Oakes played for, and managed. The team even changed their name to the Pittsburgh Rebels in his honor.

    Rebel Oakes was the first Tech athlete to play professionally in any sport.

    yes he was, which is one of the reasons I figured this was extra cool.

    BTW, Oakes is 2nd from the right in this picture: http://www.toyou.com/fl/teams/pix/pit14.jpg

    I would like to know the height and weight of the guy in the center of this picture. He towers over the rest of the team -- that is a "big ole boy."
