This is funny and simple minded, Utley is a class act and has been for years. If baseball had more like him the game would be a better sport. Quite possibly my favorite player ever.

Smart, hustle, heady he played the game right

I'm pretty sure I'm not simple-minded; I'm pretty sure you were being pejorative; and I'm pretty sure you read far too much into my post, which had nothing to do with his preceding career. As for him being your favorite player ever, yes, that is clear. You might as well be his publicist on this thread. But hey, clearly, not everyone thinks as highly of Utley as you do = duh.
