OT: 1981 CWS tapes or dvd

[Bulldog Bruce]

My 1981 CWS tapes have been destroyed. Never copied them to dvd. Anyone have those in any format?

 

[ShrubDog]

Man that is horrible. Were you on that team?

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

yes and 1979. I never did get to play in 1979. Polkie screwed up on that one.

 

[ShrubDog]

Well I hope you are able to get some new copies.

 

[dawgstudent]

Have you called the athletic dept?

 

[Shmuley]

You damn yankee. Never store VHS in the attic.

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

tried that in the past and never worked. Tried ESPN and they won't

 

[ShrubDog]

Wonder if the SEC office could help

There are some duplication companies that can restore old and even broken VHS tapes. Not sure of the cost, but they physically pull all the tape out, glue together any breaks, smooth out crumpled areas, and then capture it in a digital machine. You might have parts of the tape that are unreadable, but I bet they can restore 99% of it and put it on DVD/BR.

Not sure where you live, but I'd bet the closest city with an airport has someone that can do it.

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

yeah we stupid like that

If only your long foul to left had stayed fair--Who Knows. You are one of the all time great Bulldogs. hope you can get a copy.

Bennie Ashford

Bruce was the big time power hitter on that 81 team...I'd say the 79 team was one of the best in history of the school.

Bruce have you tried Bennie Ashford? He was a student at the time we were there but has worked in the Video dept. since that time... If anyone at MSU can do it Bennie can...

I accidentally recorded about a half a dozen '80s porn movies over my old baseball tapes.

Bruce -

My dad has the game vs south carolina that we converted to dvd. The quality is still pretty wonky but we were able to get it converted before the tape completely disintegrated. I tried several years ago to get in touch with ESPN and see if they had a copy of the Michigan game for my dad for father's day.... but they either didn't, or just wouldn't let me purchase it.

Edit: FYI - my dad is Don Mundie. Just in case it wasn't clear with the user name.

Surely Bruce is in the MSU HOF. I remember on one of his last at-bats (strike out I think), he really let the ump have it.

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

My Daughters tried the same and they said they don't do that. That is the game I hit my 29th and would definitely be the best one for me to get ahold of. If you can burn a copy I can PM you my address. I will pay any expenses.

Tell your Dad and Mom I said hey. I worked with her in Memphis for a little while.

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

You would have had to been at Alabama to see that. Yeah it was my last AB and I guess 4 years of being cool under Polkie blew up. He did miss the **** out of that call. Even the Alabama catcher agreed where I drew the line in the dirt.

And I am not in the HOF. I don't keep my M Club membership up consistently to get nominated.
