    most hated yankee, thats easy....bernie williams...or is the dreamy jeter......nope, damn sure its bernie

    one of the most over-rated ballplayers there is too, yes his numbers at the plate are always pretty good, but he can't catch a cold in the outfield

    That's just dumb. He's a 4-time Gold Glove winner.

    I will add this to that statement if it makes you feel better. For several years now, he hasn't been able to catch a cold in the outfield. How many years now has he had the bad knees? Great defensive centerfielder and bad knees. Thats a pair that doesn't come up too often in the same sentence. Of course, what do I know, I'm just comparing him to the Andruw Jones, Torii Hunters, and Jim Edmonds of the league. Compared to the rest of the outfield he's played beside, yeah, he would look like a gold-glover. He's in the lower tier of defensive centerfielders. As soon as Steinbrenner goes out and buys another, he'll make a great DH. Again, just my opinion. But then I thought I was posting so others could agree or disagree. Didn't realize I was posting just so others could tell me how dumb my ideas are. :huh:

    Well now that you mention it, the last one he won was in 2000? (Right?) If you had said what you said after I said what I said then I wouldn't have called what you said dumb.:)

    And get used to being called dumb and everything else around here. That could be just me, though. :D

    I'm a Yankees fan, and even I got tired of Paul O'Neill.

    Well yes, those few words that I added in the second post did make a world of difference. In all honesty, I didn't realize he had 4 until your post. Obviously he was doing something right. I could only think of 2. So I guess we both get partial credit on this one.

    And as far as the dumb thing. Upon further thought, if thats the worse I get in a forum, then I'll be doing just fine. After all, its not one of the BAD 4-letter words.
    :D

    And another thing. As I was checking his stats I noticed something. He sure hits a quiet .300+ each year. 7 straight. 4 of those .328 and above. I knew he was good at the plate, but until checking the stats I didn't realize he was THAT good.

    Maybe my overrated plea doesn't hold as much water. Dammit, I hate eating crow. Especially Yankee crow.:anon: But at least I still got the fielding thing (last few years) to hold onto.
