OK, so you asked for it....

I would think, from what I have read on the boards, that $400 seems to be the demarcation line.

It covers the level of providers not generally covered on the rest of the board. If you make it $500, I think you might find a level of providers, between $400-$500, not discussed in either the general board, or here.

So you have here for $400 and up, and the rest for what's below and everything gets covered.

Just a notion.

Line in the sand

Justlooking,

If we pick a number that is arbitrary, and acceptable to no one,
then I have to conclude that the number is worthless or meaningless.

Maybe what should be done is to take an informal survey, as this
thread has suggested at the beginning. But I would suggest that
the area considered be the New York metro area, including New
Jersey and Connecticut as well as Long Island. Also, it should be
for one hour of fun. Maybe that was an original requirement...I
don't know.

So far in this thread, it looks like the figure will be between $400 and $500. It's too early to say, because there have not been nearly enough responses to make the $ amount statistically significant.

I think you meant hurtle. And, can you hurtle them my way? I'll even give ya ten bucks a pop...

OH:

Used to run track in prep school and I never spell check anything I write. Hence, my error.

Since I am getting them for free through the power of my mind, I will fly them by your office gratis on the return trip to their toilet seats.

I'm a little confused! Are you guys talking about "high end" as in high asses (a colloquial term) or high end as in "price range?"

In the New York metro area, I would consider the high end to be $500 and above. Incidently, I have noticed "creeping inflation" amongst some of the ladies-- and I'm not just talking about breast size!

I saw one girl out of a rag in LA which I called and was quoted $200. What showed up, was one of the hottest escorts I have ever seen. What transpired was nothing more than a scam. $200 was just for a look. Another $200 which I stupidly dropped was to see her naked and she would barely touch me still. I must say I dropped the extra $$ thinking I would get a bj or at least some manual release from a very attracive provider. Not. At this rate she would definitely be high end in the price range, would have probably had to pay her 1000 to go all the way, but I knew when to quit. It is a shame since she was really attractive.

I suggest the line in the sand is drawn at: $400 per hour, not including tips (if any) in any city, state, subdivision, country or continent in the contiguous world.

I make a motion that we end discussion and take a vote. Anyone second this motion?

SECOND.

(Although I suspect slinkybender would tell you that the real purpose was just to have a discussion, and that now that everybody knows what all the considerations are, we don't HAVE to agree on a line in the sand.)

that's not as hard a question for an unbiased non yankee, dodger or giants fan if you just pick all the facts apart......


first lets forget about Snider... he simply wasn't in the same class as the other three. Dimaggio couldn't run/field or steal bases like mantle or mays (not that he was bad, just wasn't among the greats in those depts). mays was a better fielder than mantle, he had a better throwing arm than both and ran better most of his career and stole more bases than both mantle and dimag combined. both M&M also hit for more power than dimag but mantle had the short porch in right field when he hit lefty (which was often since there were few lefty pitchers back then). mays played the most of his career on a far inferior team than mantle and dimaggio who played on the power house yankee teams of the 40's, 50's and early 60's. mays also played the better part of his career in shitty candlestick with the winds swirling or blowing in. granted mantle was injured and played drunk most of his career but that's part of the equation.... mays stayed healthier and played longer. mays also missed two years of his prime in military service (52-53) or he more than likely would have broken the babe's record with ease. and not that it matters as much but mays also had to deal with racism on and off the field in the early part of his career in certain cities. mays saw a lot better pitching in the NL than mantle or dimag saw in the AL at the time (koufax, gibson, spahn, seaver, carlton etc...). mays also was the only one to of the four to reach 3000 hits (the others didn't come close), have a 30-30 season, 600 home runs, 2000 runs scored and almost 2000 runs batted in. the career numbers between mays and the others aren't really close. mays had over 1000 more hits than dimag and almost 900 more than mantle. mays had 100 more home runs than mantle and almost double the HR's of dimaggio. dimag gets the nod on the pussy dept, but he threw it away....so?


AVG RUNS HITS 2B 3B HR RBI
.302 2062 3283 523 140 660 1903 mays

.298 1677 2415 344 72 536 1509 mantle

.325 1390 2214 389 131 361 1537 dimaggio


sorry yankee fans but Mays was best and in MHO...it wasn't that close.

Ozzy - This is becoming an annoying habit but I agree with you. Mays was the better all around player, tho I think DiMaggio was the better hitter. Don't forget tho that DiMaggio hit righty in Yankee Stadium in the days when Death Valley was Death Valley. DiMaggio, too, missed three full years during WWII when he would have been 28, 29 and 30. Which would have been another 100 HR's (not hand releases) and 400 or so RBI's. I lean towards Mays because of his ability in all facets of the game, Candlestick Park, and his teams were crappier.
 
SC...

true dimaggio had death valley in yankee stadium but his HR totals were still way off from mays and the valley did allow for his high number of doubles and triples. lets also not take too lightly the fact that mays played on the west coast at a time when most teams were east of chicago/st louis and traveling back and forth cross country was a major bitch on the old DC3's.
