Bob Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 No, just a bunch of people who are sick of meaningless polls. Which doesn't mean I think you're wrong. Some of those are just silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GimmeShelter Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Obviously Blackout the people who responded/took the poll aren't the Baseball Historian that you are. No different than music polls or anything else. The people who responded probably never heard of Cap Anson etc. Calling Aaron overated though is somewhat curious.

LionelRichie Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 11. Brett 12. Ripken i think Ripken has to be the most overrated on the list - what exactly did he do other than play in a million games? and how can he be that close to Brett. being a Yankee fan may skew my view of george brett but he had to be one of the biggest all-time yankee killers. didn't he make a couple of runs at .400? how can he even be in the same sentence as ripken?

stormshadow19 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 What? You mean Cal was overrated? I've only been saying that for 12 years. The media hyped him and the fans bought it. Tram was twice the SS Ripkin ever was. Blackout... you shouldn't hate the modern ESPN viewer, cause not all of them voted. You should hate the ESPN voter. Direct your hate in the right place!
