I wish that would be the case but Bonds could hardly care less about honoring the great tradition of baseball, just himself.

But then, I suppose if Pete Rose could do what he did......

Sorry, if you were witness to The Babe, I'll bow to your knowledge.

Yeah, that's why it's so cheap. Bulk up and power your way through. Cobb had power but prefered to play with his head. He also hit...

While I have no problem admitting Speaker as being one of the very best at the time, I really think what Cobb did went beyond numbers. How could Tris bunt compared to Cobb? Cobb ruled the bases and...
