Adam, seriously, I wonder why you bother to speak when you really can be clueless. How can you claim to be a baseball fan and not know who Paul Blair and George Scott are? One hit wonders? Rocky Colavito is a stiff? Was Frank Howard a stiff too? Denny McLain is laughed at? Not only was he the last guy to win 30, but he won a couple of Cy Youngs and an MVP. Doesn't this stuff mean anything to you?

Honestly, when I was 24 I mostly kept my mouth shut and listened to those with more experience. It wouldn't hurt you to do the same sometime instead of insisting upon posting just to see your post up there. I honestly don't want you to take my criticism as anything more than that because I'm sensitive to your age and relative ignorance. I just think you could be more respectful to those who really honor baseball history around here.
