The way I came by my nickname is described in my profile. By the way Babe Ruth was probably the greatest natural athlete who ever lived, For a man as large and unathletically looking as he was, a man known to drink heavily and not pay attention to his health to establish so many records is amazing.
As for the greatest baseball player it must be between Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig , Pete Rose or Cal Ripken.
Well I read you home page.Gotta love the fireman,my husband is a retired Lt and was at Engine Co,6-my 2 sons are active firemen(((Hugs)))Thanks sgtbono2002
I read the book BABE RUTH: THE LEGEND COMES ALIVE by Robert W. Creamer back in the 70’s. There is a picture of him at 18 years old. What a monster! Not an ounce of fat, just muscle. He was not always fat and unathletic looking.
