And this is why baseball is dying and losing interest of the youth and dying in participation. You have people that cannot believe that someone with better training, more money at stake and can be better than some guy 50 years ago. No other sport honestly thinks some guy 50 years ago is as good or versatile than players in today’s games.
So go ahead and call it the steroid era and think that someone could not be better than a beer drinking, fat guy that played in the first half of the last century (not that fields sizes have changed or travel accommodations have also more sufficient). Kids today do not even know how most of those players are and likely do not care. These are who will bring the game to another level, not some 50 year old man who never saw many of these players they worship as some baseball God.
Peace
