Honus Wagner, and I woud ask him what the deal was with the American Tobacco Company and his T206 card (we have all heard through the years it was he objected to kids using tobacco, but is that really true??, or was it a matter of compensation they weren't willing to pay?)

I'd go back tens of thousands of years and bring back a couple hundred baseballs to be signed by early humans. What sport did they "play?" Hunting. I'd just have a bit of trouble proving the authenticity.

I'm pretty sure Morales would have exemplars to authenticate them.

Johnny Bench, and I'd ask him why he didn't send me that autographed 3 x 5 index card I requested in 1970 (sase included). Why Johnny? Why?

Gehrig is my favorite player and the one I'd like to meet most but...I'd love to meet Johnny Evers and ask him what actually happened regarding Merkle's Boner.

Don't feel bad...he didn't send me one in 1972 either, but Wes Parker did.
If I could go back, I'd like to talk to the 1919 Blacksox and find out the whole story of the fix.

Now that's funny! What a crazy and odd way post-death turned out for a true American Hero that should be buried in a National Cemetery.....and don't forget his body frozen in the next chamber. I gotta believe Ted would have responded to that question with 'F--- No!'
