When I read through this thread the first time, I thought "what a bunch of childish squabbling". I read it a second time and noted what a great job most of the posters did of sticking to the point and not stooping to the level childishness of others. Made me feel good about being an Oldtimer (although kudos go to some Members as well). There is just no reason to get personal and be insulting.
I'm a big time Biggio fan, and Biggio never showed up a pithcer, never failed to run out a grounder or a pop up, and never argued a called strike. He has all the stats of a Hall of Famer, and I hope respecting the game and the other players the way he did gets him in on the first ballot.
