    not a bad article at all Grease
    but you gotta realize we are talking overrated
    as in considered greatest of the greats

    and in that category there could be an argument either way for each player

    id even throw Jeter in that same group as overrated possibly

    http://www.espn.com/mlb/player/stats...789/cal-ripken

    had a bit more home runs than I thought
    but those stats are inflated because he got in a extra 100 at bats more than most players each year

    He was good, real good .... but still overrated imo

    You from Balty Greaser ?

    He was an amazing player though

    I doubt I could make it to 2,632 games of bingo in a row without getting injured or taking a sick day

    He had that ugly but short stroke that could line it quickly (and i mean quickly ) out of the park

    Played in a beautiful stadium and had a very memorable end of streak game

    But still overrated when its based on stats and production against other players who are considered legendary

    Soooo many players that could be considered top overrated of all time and a few of them

    are pitchers who started for the Yankees when they won all those World Series

    Average pitchers stat wise that are considered great because of success in World Series Championships

    and in the win loss department

    You from Balty Greaser ?
    Maybe you are giving Cal too much credit at the outset. You don't think he is HOF material?

    I'm not so sure about that analogy... without going too far into the Manning / Brady rivalry, Manning is 3-2 against Brady in the playoffs. Brady has played under the best coach in the history of the NFL and always had a top notch defense, while Manning has played for a bunch of bums aside from Tony Dungy, with no defense until he got to the Broncos, and still found ways to be the best. What would Manning have done if you put him under Belichick?

    Ryan Howard is my choice for the most overrated baseball player in my lifetime.

    Ryan Howard is a interesting choice but he did have 6 seasons in a row where
    he had some crazy RBI and home run totals from 2006 through 2011

    2006 -58 homers -149 ribbies
    2007-47 homers - 136 ribbies
    2008-48 homers-146 ribbies
    2009-45 homers -141 ribbies
    2010-31 homers - 108 ribbies
    2011-33 homers -116 ribbies


    as much as I want to throw him in the group I just cant with those
    6 seasons one after another of almost unheard of production at the time

    kvb
    Damanster
    stevenash
    perfectgrape

    and actually some others as well if I dont post 95% of my plays here at sbr


    dont want you to ruin this thread to so last post to you here
    Your posts actually mess up the fluidity because it will go off track
    even when a good discussion is going once you come into the mix
    it gets derailed and the posts with relativity are back another page
    because you pollute whatever was originally being discussed
    which sucks because you should be thankful you are allowed to post here at all
