feeling old

just heard this on Cubs broadcast.

baseball the only major sport that doesn't have an active player that played in 1999 or earlier

we should be seeing some rookies in hoops or baseball in the next year, that were actually born in the year 2000


holy balls

That's crazy.

There two players in the NFL that are pre 2000...Phil Dawson (1999) and Adam Vinatieri (1996)

Both kickers.

A bunch of NHL players from 1997 and even 1996 too.

Still a lot of life left in us

1st player born in the year 2000 made his major league debut today to, reliever i think. Not sure if he got in the game but 1st one on an opening day active roster, that made me feel old as shit.

Ichiro was on the opening day roster and played in 1999.

[DrunkHorseplayer]

Ichiro debuted in 2001 at the age of 27.
