Nobody ever claims that Howie Morenz and Eddie Shore were in the same class as Gretzky and Orr, or that Nat Holman and George Mikan were remotely las good as Jordan and Jabbar, or that Red Grange was the equal of Jim Brown. What is it about baseball that makes people so romanticize the ancients and to insist they were better, or equal, in absolute terms?
