I said Kirby had 2000 hits in his first 10 seasons. You come out and tell me that I am wrong. And then correct me by saying he had 1996 ? Come on....Pretty close to 2 Grand. And I do not have Kirby on a pedestal. I live in the Twin Cities, and have had plenty of contact with him. Both at the garbage dome, and in the community. I was simply spouting stats. I put very few people on pedestals. The ones I put up there are family and friends. Not athletes. I have thousands of cards. I collect them because I love the cards, the game, and the history. Yes, Puck belongs in the hall. He easily would have had over three thousand hits if he wouldn't have been beaned. But I suppose we could go back and pick out the dozens of other players who don't belong.
