Nettles performed when the spotlight was brightest- A-ROD has not. Plus, the steroid issue has clouded his career-along with Bonds, Clemens and possibly Piazza. Stat wise, he is a great player. But, starting pitching isn't what it once was-I wish they would raise the mound to where it used to be. Like I wrote earlier, its all a matter of opinion but I appreciate your response. Thank you.

No, A-ROD isn't better defensively as Mike Schmidt or Brooks Robinson. Offensively, he is great but is not so great in the clutch. Yes, he hit a game winning home run recently but in the glare of the post season spotlight, he is last guy you want up at bat in a clutch situation. That's what is great about all-time teams are the arguments/debates about the selections. It is just a matter of opinion. Thank you for your response. By the way-the two best pitchers I have ever seen are: 1) Sandy Koufax and 2) Bob Gibson. Just some food for debate!

There was someone else who knocked him down early in his career; I can't remember the name offhand. But I agree Ali-Frazier I was quite a fight.

I have followed his career since he first came into the NFL and remain to this day a loyal fan. His life on and off the field serves as an exemplary role model. How he could ever be denied Hall of Fame status is beyond me. I certainly hope he continues to play, however, if he should choose to retire, Kurt has nothing to be ashamed of, in regard to his performance, in this years Super Bowl. The numbers he put up speak for themselves. This is an excellent commentary on Kurt Warner. I have followed his career since he first came into the NFL and remain to this day a loyal fan.

]]> Comment on WILL FEDERER REPEAT? by Matt Hill http://inovertime.wordpress.com/2008/06/24/will-federer-repeat/#comment-104 Matt Hill Thu, 26 Jun 2008 06:58:49 +0000 http://inovertime.wordpress.com/?p=151#comment-104 Federer doesn't look the same. I think the mono he had has slowed him down while Rafael Nadal is looking unstoppable right now, even on grass. I said on my blog, which can be found at www.thetomahawk.com, that Nadal was my pick for Wimbledon after winning the French Open and I still believe that. I really thought it would be a Djokovic-Nadal final, but Marat Safin showed his how he has underachieved throughout his whole career by showing flashes of brilliance like on Wednesday, but not carrying it over for a whole career. My pick is still Rafa and nothing has shown me otherwise. Federer doesn’t look the same.
