That can't be real. It looks too pristine for one. For another, goddamn would not have been used in print. It's some sort of sick joke.

I asked several employees at the Hall and they all mentioned Willie and Reggie

Canton not Cooperstown, but at a National in Arlington decades ago I saw Franco Harris be a total jerk to everyone young and old. Could have been a bad day or perhaps that is the reason he ran out of bounds on most plays?

I met Franco Harris years ago and he was fine. If you want to add football I would heartily endorse Lynn Swann for the list.

Agree. Why would someone create it and post on eBay?

Done. Sorry 'bout that.


in light of newer biographies of Cobb, it probably was just a sick joke.

Again, I apologize...now, let's dig into those others:




Non-Players in the Hall:

Landis kept the majors from integrating for decades - at a time when he may have had enough power to make the change.

Frick was the first to impose an '*'.

Yawkey made Boston the LAST team to integrate.
