Do you really believe he could handle Bob Gibson's fastballs?
How about Koufax's curve balls?

Could this be a kinder more understanding more evolved Abe?

John Daily is the greatest of any sport

[teaserpleaser]

Deion sanders, Bo Jackson, or Herschel Walker those guys could play any pro sport and be good at it.

[ABEHONEST]

This is for curious:
How could you be uglier than me?

[ABEHONEST]

Abe, you mellowed during your time off. The old Abe would have never been so quick to admit his original list was inadequate. Could this be a kinder more understanding more evolved Abe? Man of the Year canidate if true.

Yes Wal66, I have come back refreshed and sweeter!

Besides, the World is going to end soon anyway: who's got time for bickering?

[ABEHONEST]

No he could not - he was dead by then

Wrong Phils-Lost!

The Babe was still alive when Koufax and Gibson were pitching!
I will wager 150 points on any taker!

[Brock Landers]

[stingray14]

Jerry Rice greatest football player in history

[BadNina]

As much as I hate to admit it I would have to say Bo Jackson. If he had concentrated on one sport...wow.

[ABEHONEST]

Hey BadNina, welcome back to my side!
I missed you!
But, I do have to correct you on Bo. You know he was a Yankee don't you?
Born in Vermont, I believe? No Southern boy BO!
You still want to pick Bo?

Anyway, a serious side. You have been name kicked around on this forum and I didn't like it. [PM if u want?]
You can lean on my shoulder any time if you need it!

[BadNina]

You can PM me any time you want, Abe dear. And yeah I stick with Bo.

Darnit HHSilver! I was wanting some youngster to bite on that hook!

Okay, I forgot, I have come back sweeter than ever, so I forgive you!

There is NO answer to this scenario......


Stupid Question........just sayin....

[hhsilver]

did you want to lose the bet and give away the 150?

[ABEHONEST]

did you want to lose the bet and give away the 150?

Huh? You lost me there? I wanted Phil-Wins to bite, so I would have won 150 points.
They both pitched in the majors in the late 50's, right? Babe died in 1948, so they were both in their teens or early 20's I would think?
