The first player elected to the hall of fame was Ty Cobb. Manager Casey Stengel stated that “Cobb was the best ever. No one else was even close”.

Despite that, I suspect he would be left out in today’s PC world.

The funny thing is just about all the facts everyone knows about Cobb are not true.

I read somewhere that Cobb was not the racist they make him out to be. It's a real shame that they ruined his reputation with such lies. I think Schilling has a point when he calls sports writers scumbags.
