what none of you are asking is why would the league knowingly
fictionalize a players entire life for the sake revisionist history and let a myth live indefinitely? I havent read the article yet so I dont know how they address his alledged beating up of a fan that the long baseball documentary had no problem retelling. Even though they were supposed to do exhaustive research |

Question for all the lawyers in the house. If the above respondents in this thread were in a jury pool, would their posts here help you to determine whether or not you would dismiss them as a candidate?

One general observation from a number of these posts. It's interesting reading comments on 'facts' from those who either haven't read the article or repeating claims made from previously (fabricated) works as 'facts'. I would also offer that Cobb wasn't as much "misunderstood" as he was "misrepresented". |

I am flabbergasted that they would award their top book prize to an author who thinks it's possible to get a home run on a ball hit back to the pitcher.

I think you would have a hung jury. We could determine that he was difficult but negligently an A-hole!!
