Greatest to Wear the Number: #24

sweaver · 08-26-2002, 04:43 PM

I wonder who'll win this one.....

JamesI · 08-26-2002, 04:45 PM

Maybe I'm wrong but didn't Bonds wear 24 with Pittsburgh?

Even if he did, Mays has this one wrapped up.

sweaver · 08-26-2002, 04:48 PM

Barry did wear #24 in the 'burgh, but he's been with the Giants longer now, and there he's #25.

Doggie!!!

Just kidding. Rickey say Mays is a clear choice over the otherwise clear choice of Rickey.

pathogan · 08-26-2002, 05:05 PM

then rickey....

Fuzzy Bear · 08-26-2002, 05:15 PM

Is Willie Mays the greatest ever? If not, is he #2?

NCFella19 · 08-26-2002, 05:33 PM

Rickey will be sad to hear it ain't Rickey:

Willie Mays

KCBOOMER · 08-26-2002, 05:33 PM

When you have a list that includes a man that is on everyone's short list for "greatest player ever" you gotta go with him.

qtlaw · 08-26-2002, 06:48 PM

"Say Hey" how can this even be debatable? Where's my Willie avatar?

LeGrandOrange · 08-26-2002, 09:13 PM

Minor observation...where's Junior? Yes, I can be serious about an "other".

I REALLY wanted to pick Rickey, I honestly did. But I had to take Say Hey.

tortured angel · 08-26-2002, 09:38 PM

Maybe someday players will wear 24 in honor of Rickey, until then , "SAY HEY!".

Ok if I were to vote for Rickey, where on a scale from 1-10 would you put my intelligence? 1 being insane and 10 being a Mensa member. Seriously.

sweaver · 08-26-2002, 10:00 PM

3? Rickey says Rickey would give you a 9.
