Not sure why this is in the pre-war section but, as the rules state, members can do some off topics. In that respect lets let this stay on the front page but everyone should be careful of what forum you are posting in, with respect to the subject matter. I have no clue about the question. (not to sound mean, but I really don't care

sry about where i put it. Question is about do you think these players were or were not the best of their time.
Sometimes people say bonds (lets say) should be in the HOF cause hes not the HR leader, or mays was better etc. Pleayer should and are supposed to be compared to the players of their time, not those who came before them or after them, IMO.

Barry was certainly better at growing his head size than most all of his peers.

Yes, in a way I'm joking...but seriously Ripken and Jeter couldn't collectively have carried Cobb's Jock strap.

Ripken and Jeter are class acts and deserve all the praise they receive......don't have much good to say about the other 3 doucebags you have listed. Barry Bonds was one the first guys to also get heavily into steroids around the mid 90's. I think he's a complete joke with the majority of his stats being inflated by the juice. He deserves NEVER to be voted into the hall of fame.

Are you current with baseball or too stuck in pre-war?

I would say stuck in prewar.....if we're talking Vietnam.
This may sound very strange to most here but I like baseball cards a lot more than I like baseball. Lost interest in the game when I discovered "hippie" life. Never lost interest in the cards though. Last baseball game I went to was Denny Mclain winning 31 in 1968. Last Hockey game was at Olympia waaaay before even goalies wore masks and helmets were unheard of. 1964. Last football game was the lions when they played at Briggs Stadium 1959. Last Basketball game was the Pistons when they played at Cobo Hall (Can't remember the year). Last super concert... Hendrix at Flint IMA (Front row center). |

I only follow these current players....Alex Rodriguez, Albert Pujols and Derek Jeter....but they have no special meaning to me....just like to see their stats go up. I use to like watching Ken Griffey Jr play as well and Nolan Ryan when I was a kid. Miguel Cabrera is also a fun player to watch.
In the end I simply watch baseball for baseball not any specific players. Post # 11 Last edited by Zone91; 05-24-2013 at 10:52 AM. |
