Bill K@selEither Peter has some serious hatred towards Cobb, or serious man-love for Barry.
If only they had the Internets available to the voters in 1936 and previous years where youtube images and video of Cobb skipping third base, injecting HGH into his rear, and body slamming pit bulls who refused to fight him in a cage match the voters might have been swayed a bit. As it were all they had were smoke signals and pony express to get the news across the country....wait, maybe that was for Kelly....now I'm confused. :-|
Had my parents not been Catholic my point would be moot and irrelevant.
Will Barry get in the Hall? I really don't care. It won't change my opinion of him and it won't affect my love of the dead-ball era.
