A blanket allegation like that on a public forum such as this, implies - for the world to see - that he was both. If he was neither, you have done him a grave injustice, smearing his name, that a later, "Gosh, I was wrong and I'm sorry," would never correct. To make such an unattributed charge, you need to first cite your source(s) and not a "I've read that . . ." For that matter, why is it important if he was either and why does it matter to you?

These allegations come from an article Pat Jordan wrote years ago for Philadelphia magazine. Carlton said he never said what he was quoted as saying. No comments on the comments but I enjoyed Pat Jordan's book "A False Spring" and he has been a member of the media and sports journalism for a long time.
I was able to track down the original article text: https://thestacks.deadspin.com/thin-...d-co-478492324 Last edited by packs; 05-08-2018 at 02:58 PM. |

That's okay, we'll just call you, appropriately, Chuck 'n Duck!

Chuck, the OP, did not give his opinion of Steve Carlton, did he? He's just asking a question.
sincerely, Chuck |

All I know about Mr Carlton is that the Cardinals had him and somehow thought trading him for Rick "Wise" was a good idea.

Just asking a questions isnt' just asking when one of the answers would mean you are a socially unacceptable person... or like when my wife asks me, what are you doing this weekend? i always afraid to answer because one of the answers may be wrong..
