Re: Not a fossil bashing post
I dont think asking whether someone is overatted sould EVER be construed as a bashing of said person.(Ive mentionaed this example before) There can be a very strong case made that Joe Dimmagio was/is a completely overatted player. If I was a mamber of a baseball forum and the subject of Joe Dimaggios greatness constanty came up to such a degree that i thought other players like Musial, Mays, and Williams were becoming overshadowed I would certainly make similiar posts to the one i made in regards to the treatment of Raymer on this board. Would I then be guilty of character assasination against Dimaggio?? If I reasonably laid out statistics and a comparison of fielding,throwing, and baserunning skills would that be proof that I held some long standing agenda driven by envy to rip down Dimaggio; or would it just mean I wanted Dimaggio to be treated fairly and equally to all the other great players that played MLB>?
