Cobb was not a raging racist. He built low-income housing in Georgia specifically for African American residents, would often sell them land for nothing, and fought for integrated play long before it was generally accepted. “The negro has the right to compete in sports and who’s to say they have not?” -1952

i take it back on cobb then, respect him even more. everything else i said i still believe. they call it the ped era for a reason, don't think it's just some isolated cases in each locker room. bonds/clemens was the greatest of that era, they should be in. thank god their votes are trending upward so i believe they will be in eventually. just kind of odd piazza is in before bonds...
