Agree it will always be Jackie. I'm sorry to all the Mays fans but I don't get the impression anyone really cares about him. Mike Trout is called the next Mickey Mantle, not the next Willie Mays. Even Jasson Dominguez is being compared to Mickey Mantle, not Willie Mays. There isn't a Willie Mays award. Being that Mays wasn't Robinson in a historical sense, it's only a matter of time before he fades into HOFer obscurity.
Some people might suggest race has something to do with this. But I offer personality instead. Hank Aaron is revered beyond reverence. Willie is a shut in nobody ever sees anywhere and it's probably because he's not invited. Last edited by packs; 01-17-2020 at 12:32 PM.
