Message: [QUOTE="JordyG, post: 2362546, member: 6819"] Still a legend on NYC playgrounds. Like Satchel Paige (of course for far different reasons) people didn't get to see this phenomenal player until far too late in his career. For both it all seems so ridiculous and almost arbitrary now to us moderns. Not only a tragedy for these players, but for sports fans as well. Still, both of these guys were always so gracious and appreciative when their time did come. Not sure if I would've been the same. RIP men. You've earned your rest. [/QUOTE]
