Message: [QUOTE="hoophuskee, post: 3835733, member: 3535"] Same with Luis Tiant? He won 3 games in the 1975 World Series vs the Big Red Machine - but you would classify him as a player who didn't perform well enough to get it done? Not arguing- just wondering what you think. Getting to the World Series means that you didn't get "enough money?" I get that you meant it figuratively. But so am I when I ask about "enough money." Can anyone "earn enough money" in your opinion to say that someone is great even if "they didn't get it done?" Or is the player excluded from being great because they get it done? Just trying to understand for you how important is it to you that "they didn't get it done." [B]For any player that didn't get it done - it's a reflection on the player they were in your view? [/B] For example in your view HOF players in all sports - if you were to decide the rules - would the ones who didn't get it done such as Yaz and Williams be in? [B]Now what about Kerry Bascom? If you decided the rules on the Husky Wall of Honor, would Bascom be on it? And secondly, would you classify her as a Husky Great? And yet if you considered her great, would you make it a point when you mention her as husky great that "she didn't get it done?" **And would you consider El Amin and Kevin Freeman greater than Ray Allen as a husky? And is Faris greater than Bascom? Faris was 2nd team A/A. Pretty respectable. [/B] [/QUOTE]
