Pro forma yes

A true giant of the game.

if I could choose 1 ballplayer to take 1 AB in a game, I'd choose Cobb every damn time
for my money, other than possibly Williams, Cobb is the greatest player in the history of the game

Interesting statement there, cd. I don't suppose you'd care to elaborate on that?

[LisaG]

how do you spell DUH

agree with cd - the best ballplayer who ever lived. he could do it all. followed closely by willie mays and barry bonds

yes i know he was a bad human being most of the time, but he was an absolutely incredible ballplayer
