Wow, how am I going to recover from that one? Cobb, the best ever. Ok..your turn!

he was the best player in the history of the game, i do not agree with his opinions about race, or his inability to accept that the world changes. thats why less that 5 baseball persons went to his funeral; but there is no denial, he was the best baseball player to enter the diamond
Cobb was the ... ( 1 month ago by aisle4row8seat113)
Cobb was the greatest of them all. Amazing how there's nobody in modern times who compares to the true greats such as Cobb, Hornsby and Lajoie. All those guys had good-size and were built very sturdily unlike today's puffed-up players.

I have just read the comments from scubajenjen after checking out the good works for charity Ty did. Anyway, it seems that the old adage is true, if your losing an argument resort to name calling.

Ty Cobb was a baseball player! Nuff said! Everyone who has ever pitched, catched, batted or feild in a baseballgame has to even recognize some of this in their own head. Ty Cobb, The Babe, The Iron Horse, Mickey Mantley, Mayes, Young, Honus Wagner and big tits. They all played a big role in what baseball is all about today!

Cobb was a great player...he wasn't Babe Ruth,nor in the context of their times, Mickey Mantle...a truly great player, none the less...

get out of town, what do you know
he was the best, bar none
he also was a better person than Ruth or Mantle contrary to today's (over 40 years after he died) opinion
go learn some facts about the man before you open your mouth
thanks
Little natural ... ( 1 month ago by generalbullmoose)
Little natural talent? This is the guy who taught himself to bat left handed just so he could be closer to first base. This is the guy who, in response to a dare that he couldn't hit a home run, hit five of them in a doubleheader & then went back to playing ball the way he thought it should have been played.
Yeah, he was dirty alright, but he was an amazing player, who played the right way...with his head.

Cobb was the greatest, a .367 average, ,thats insane. I see this vid has a lot of stupid race comments, I always questioned Satchel Paige when he claimed to have won 2500 games,, 5 times more than Cy Young, I think Paige was a little full of himself,,
We're really ... ( 2 weeks ago by therush87)
We're really talking Cobb as the greatest player ever? He's the greatest player of the Dead Ball Era, not ever. Just talking position players, Babe Ruth, Mantle, Mays and Bonds are a few players better than Cobb.
And no, I don't hate Ty Cobb for his alleged racism. By todays standards he may be racist, but for back then he actually seems racially progressive.
Yes we are REALLY ... ( 2 weeks ago by EricAnno)
Yes we are REALLY talking Cobb as the greatest ball player EVER, because he most certainly was. Mickey Mantle, whom I grew up on, was the greatest all-around ball player I had ever seen, but he drank and partied and essentially ruined his career. Don't even bring Bonds into any discussion, because even prior to his PEDs usage, he was far from anything Cobb did. Mays doesn't make my top five, and Ruth is right behind Cobb.
Array ( 1 week ago by smokinranger8)
You're wrong
Bonds doesn't even make the list
Mantle and Mays wouldn't make my top 10
Ruth (if you don't include pitchers and thus only look at his hitting)
would be third after Hans Wagner
If you did include pitchers, I might put some pitchers before both
Still Cobb was a great human a brilliant man with money and a genus in spikes
He wasn't nearly as ... ( 1 week ago by smokinranger8)
He wasn't nearly as racist as many thought, if you study it...
Yea it is insane especially considering over the first half of his career he played in the dead-ball era
He lead the league in SLUGGING 8X, LEAD THE LEAGUE
Came in 2nd 3 more times and 3rd 3 more
Plus add the steals in
Plus add in his great fielding and bunting abilities and you have the best
all around wonder and he wasn't even that talented
I think you ... ( 1 week ago by Airmaster167)
I think you confused "batting average" with "slugging." Ruth destroyed him in slugging.
Some say he scored from 1st on a single, and came home from 2nd on a passed ball. That is nuts.
Don't talk shit ... ( 1 week ago by Airmaster167)
Don't talk shit about Mantle. The guy can hit a home run with 1 arm. Not only can he hit the ball out of the park, but he was one of the fastest guys among his peers.
Array ( 1 week ago by smokinranger8)
Um no
If you can't even check the stats, what are you good for?
He(Cobb) lead the league in Slugging 1907,1908,1909,1910,1911,1912,1914,1917
He came in second in SLUGGING 1913, 1915,1918,
He came 3rd in SLUGGING 1916,1921,1925
He lead in BA 12X, OPS 10, Steals 6, I could keep going
It is nuts
He has sooo many records I can't name them all in a post, but there was none better than the Great Georgia Peach, if he played for the Yankees we wouldn't be talking

usually he used 2 arms sir...
You want to go on how crippled he was?
Cobb nearly lost his eyesight!...He got his tonsils hacked apart by a guy admitted to an an insane asylum, he got threats that guys were going to snipe him in Philly and elsewhere, he saw his mother kill his idol - his father, I could keep going but Mickey has nothing on him
Its not how skilled you are its how you use what you've got
Cobb worked so hard, and was so smart, his attack was so varied, He WAS A GENUS IN SPIKES

its sad he had to be such a miserable fuck.
