    Why do you say that?
    More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.

      Really tough calls, imo.

      1. Cy Young
      2. Walter Johnson
      3. Babe Ruth
      4. Barry Bonds
      5. A-Rod
      6. Pete Alexander
      7. Carl Yaz
      8. Robin Yount
      9. Hank Aaron
      10. Ty Cobb


      Tough to leave Foxx out of there, though. I can easily see Bonds over Ruth but the era restriction is what held him at 4th for me. Cobb vs. Foxx vs. Rickey vs. Teddy Ballgame vs. Billy Hamilton is a tough call --- all have unbelievable career and BY stats but all at premium letters, positions, and franchises. On a related note, I should have taken Rudy York in the 2nd when I had the chance. I always regret passing on that dude.
      I have the same top four in the same order. Then:

      5. Aaron
      6. A-Rod
      7. Yount
      8. Radbourn
      9. Alexander
      10. Yaz

      I had Cobb at 11. And these were just a guide for me, obviously, since I took Yaz over Radbourn and Alexander when I picked. I had York at 21, so I don't see any problem with your passing on him, lol. Draft has gone QUIZY crazy now. A great chance to see if my QUIZ theory is right or a pile of horse dung.

        When you get a chance, revo, please explain to me your strategy from the last draft since I appear to be following it, and I don't really have a clue what to do next.

                At this rate on QUIZY's, you might need to make that a 6th round pick, lol.

                    Hopefully, I'm not using a wildcard on a U or Z.

                          I keep and eat leftovers wayyyyyyy past any health recommendations. Although Last night i broke down and threw out the last of the three week old mashed potatoes. I guess if i ever got sick or had any problems i would be more vigilant about this stuff

                            I'm really hit or miss. I'll eat week+ old pot roast that I've made, but throw away milk way too early.

                            I tend to make food for the week in the instant pot. I'll have the same soup or chicken tacos for lunch every day for a week+.

                                Milk is an exception, it gets noticeably worse sometimes before expiration date
