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?

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

You gotta stop thinking. Just have fun. - Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez, in The Sandlot I've been going to games since August 8, 1973....and on August 22, 2004, finally, a foul ball came my way. I had to reach for it, and it deflected off the tip of my right index finger. Shoot, if I was only 4 inches taller! Have you read The Baseball Same Game?
