I guess I'll just never fail to be perplexed and bothered by how down a lot of people are on Nolan Ryan on various internet forums. I don't feel it's deserved. There are so many different types of players who offer their brand of talent to the game. One's skill set may differ radically from another, yet each is an asset. As others have stated, I also condsier Ryan among the greatest pitchers, but for different reasons than different types of pitchers. He had his own way of doing things and it clearly worked out for him.

And in turn, I will never fail to be perplexed by why people are bothered by other people using fair, reasonable math even if they don't want to deal with it themselves.
