Which of these Stats belongs to whom?
Then go through all the stats of each player and maybe one of you can tell me why one is a sure fire first ballot Hall inductee and the other isn't.
Other than personalities, hype and most fans believing what is said bad about one of them and everything good about the other.
In case you haven't caught on yet, the media prints what a manager wants them to print...not so much now days, but in the 90s it was so. The hype began in 1996 and got so big and snowballed so much even the players began to believe it was true.
It is easy to fool the fans, most of them come to watch the game and know little about the game itself. I mean the way plays are made by one player and the same play gets a; "Wow, what a play, he dove and came up with it. When actually, if he had better range and quickness he would have made the play look like an ordinary play.
