Virginia Giant Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Baseball and it's fans have a history of treating the best players like shit. Ruth was hated for not being ruth at the end of his career. marris, he was hated for not being a tru yankee. If you look throughout our history, you'll find us treating the best we had like crap. Currently, we chastise the games top players for steroids. My question is, how will the generations to come look at us? Will they view us as we view the generations before us? unfair and ignorant? or will they see us as fans of pure baseball, offended by cheating?

LorfTVP Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Many of our best players are treated like the gods that they were. Granted I don't know how the careers of some of the best players in history ended so I can't truly gauge an answer to this question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
