Stumps book might be the actual worst non-fiction volume I have ever read. Not only is it wrong and a load of garbage, the author just completely made it all up himself. It’s not poor sourcing, or a hot take that ruins it, but the very direct and intentional lies by the scumbag who wrote it.
Too much is made of how Cobb might fit into current political correctness, and not enough about the actual assault and batteries he did commit.
I am hard pressed to think of a non political figure who has been smeared by so many lies after his life as Cobb has.
Best player of his time. Possibly the second greatest hitter ever. He has a legitimate case for it.
