Also, I would never want my kids to play like him if that means doing what he did to Fosse during a meaningless All-Star game.

You know what I mean.....
He played the game hard and w/ fire. That was wrong what he did in the All-star game, I agree, but you can't knock the guys work ethic.
Mike P, those are some valid points that I never considered before. Maybe he should be held to a higher standard as a manager. But he wouldn't be inducted into the Hall for what he did as a Manager it would be for what he did as a player.
You guys do realize that I'm not trying to start trouble, I just think this is a good topic to really discuss.
By the way I'm still at work so this is cool
