No I agree....They're all great players and they belong in the hall of fame but unfortunately in this day and age they're judged by rings and not by character and performance.

I also think that Free agency has completely destroyed the magic that was baseball when I was growing up.

There is no such thing as a home team hero anymore....like Yaz. If your kid loves a player on the Sox you're almost guaranteed he'll be gone w/in 6 years.

Tony Gwynn was the last of his kind. A guy that remained true to a team and not a dollar. You can't question ANY man's Loyalty that would spend his career in San Diego.



Oh yeah Its Blanchard.......
