You are wrong.

Thomas Jefferson was a slave owner, not a slave.Dan Snyder is the Redskins owner, not a Redskin. Al Davis and Paul Brown owned their respective teams and "performed" during games on the field - so they are reasonably referred to as Raiders and Bengals respectively. George Bush owned the...

Your first post was quite accurate.

Bob Sheppard was NOT a Yankee - but he was closer than Steinbrenner. He was a paid member of the organization - paid for his work just outside the lines of the field. You seem to get it at the end of your post....YES - Pavano and Whitson...and Elston Howard and Catfish Hunter were all Yankees...

I don't understand why people are referring to Steinbrenner as a Yankee. He was no more a Yankee than Obama is a Soldier or Thomas Jefferson was a slave. Billy Martin was a Yankee. Matty Alou was a Yankee. Hell, even George Halas - Chicago Bears patriarch and owner was a Yankee (though...

Ummm....Don Drysdale. Should be a lock on ALL of these lists. You can knock off Whitey Ford and Juan Marichal if you need to make room - both pitching in the same era didn't measure up to Drysdale's numbers - especially if you add in his abilities at the plate. In 1962, Drysdale won 25 games...

"For various reasons, Clemens became merely mortal over the next four seasons (1993-1996). He spent two stints on the DL in 1993 and finished with a losing record for the first time, with a bloated 4.46 ERA. He bounced back somewhat in the strike-shortened 1994 season, ranking second in the...

Fun list. The only arguments I would make would be to drop Glavine down to 10 on that list and perhaps drop Clemens off of it based on the fact he was good, not great prior to roiding. Some names that could justifiably crawl into the list...Curt Schilling, Wilbur Wood, Fernando Valenzuela...

What was "his" era? He started with Seaver, Jenkins and Palmer ...pitched against Gooden, Viola and Morris and finished against Clemens, Maddux and Pedro....

Don't be a tool. No WAY Fowler has been gone for a long time - UNLESS you are in a very shallow league that allows for a HUGE bench. Barmes maybe. He has a history. Rodriquez - possibly - he led Spring Training in HR by a wide margin - but Fowler...NO WAY he was in the minors 10-12 days ago.

....and second deck. But who's counting?

You can likely pick up all three of these guys in most leagues by spending 4 minutes on the waiver wire. 3 weeks from now, they will all be gone. That IS buying low. Now if you are implying that "buy low" means ONLY "buy currently undervalued" - well - I believe all three of these guys are...

1973. 2 No Hitters. 21 wins on a sub .500 team. (Jim Palmer - the winner won one more game for a team that won 97 games) 26 complete games in 39 starts. (326 innings pitched - there are 351 in 39 nine inning affairs) Set a post-1900 Major League Baseball record for most strikeouts in a...

No. The idiot that posted "ilmenite trade" as opposed to imminent trade would be fired. I mean, ilmenite? Really? Fat fingers, or just stupid?
