Question

If you could sit down with any 5 Baseball Legends who would they be and why

Answer 1

Nolan Ryan, Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, Ted Willaims, Joe DiMaggio. Nolan because hes the president of my team and the other because they seem like interesting people to chat with.

Answer 2

Wow, this is a great question. Had to think this one out for awhile. Okay, here they are.

Shoeless Joe Jackson because I would luv to know the truth about what happened. I don't think any of the Black Sox were wrong. Just to know the truth would be great.

Satchel Paige because he is a Black player from back in the day that wasn't taken very well. He ended up a Hall of Famer and was an awesome player. His stories about that time would be very interesting,

Babe Ruth, the heart & sole of baseball. A player from the era where baseball was a game, not a money maker like it is today. I would love to hear his stories of that era.

Nolan Ryan, one of the best pitchers ever. They say pitchers are a different breed. I just think it would be great to sit & talk with him about pitching techniques.

Kenny Lofton, a player who plays for the luv of the game & works hard to keep his body in shape. Even though he is 40yrs. old, he can still play with the younger players. I have always liked him growing up an Indians fan. He is an awesome outfielder and I've seen him make some unbelievable catches. He should of been signed this year but wasn't. I would like to talk about his career and if he will try a comeback next year.

Star for you!  =o`)

Answer 3

Hank Arron- Greatest HR hitter

Jackie Robinson-One of the greatest player of all time.

Jeff Connine- Mr. Marlin

Babe Ruth- Greatest yankee player

Roberto Clemente- Inspiring player, helped stop racism in baseball.

Answer 4

Mickey Mantle - Because of the endless laughter concerning him, Whitey Ford and Billy Martin, that filled the gaps between baseball games.  Maybe the greatest story teller of them all.

Yogi Berra - Who is a lot smarter than people think.  The art of catching and being a part of 13 American League Pennant winners and 10 World Series Championships.

Ted Williams - On the art of hitting not to mention is wonderful life after baseball as one of the great fishing outdoorsman in America.

Jackie Robinson - To better understand what he went through just to play in the major leagues.  His own perspective.  And what it was like to reach the world series so many times only to be beaten by the Yankees, all but one year in 1955.

Joe Torre - What it was like to manage the Yankees from 1996 to 2007.  I'd want to know what made those teams so good and what it was like dealing with George Steinbrenner.

Answer 5

Babe Ruth- I would love to spend  ten minutes with the man who has truly made baseball the sport that it is today, just if nothing else, to say I was able to have ten minutes of his time and to be able to relish in his greatness

Lou Gehrig- Probably on the top of my all time 3 favorite player list. If this truly legendary player had lived beyond his early death at 37 years old all the record books would have his name in them. His quiet demeanor, his grace, truly made him the pride of those who knew him and those who have grown up idolizing him.

Ted Williams- This Yankee fan recognizes greatness, and Williams was truly one of the greatest. The only thing missing was a World Series victory for this man, but that made him no less than the pkayer he was.

Nolan Ryan- OMG! What can you say, no one will ever catch him in strikeouts..... I would love to meet him. The greatest pitcher in my mind of all time.

Roger Clemens- I would love to sit down with him, smack him up along side of the head and ask him what in the h**l was he thinking in lying to Congress. One of the most dominate pitchers of our generation, a one time shoo in to the Hall of Fame.... DONE! What a bonehead!

Answer 6

Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantel, Shoeless Joe, Hank Arron, and Lou Gerrigh

Answer 7

I'm back... for a day...

Let's see:

Barry Larkin- Favorite Player ever

Jackie Robinson- Must be a very interesting story

Johnny Bench- One of the greatest Reds players ever

Greg Maddux- One of the smartest players to ever play

Josh Hamilton- His story would be interesting face to face

Answer 8

Babe Ruth - I'd love to get in his head and see what kind of person he is out of the Yankee uniform.

Roberto Clemente - I think it's amazing that a person can give so much of their life to others and to even die that way.I mean many players can say they died but none of them can say they died helping people they hardly knew because only Roberto Clemente can.

Yogi Berra - He's so funny and I love all his little sayings like "It's deja vu all over again" and in that Aflac commercial "and they give you cash,which is just as good as money". He just seems like such a funny guy and was a great player,too.

Johnny Bench - I believe that he is the real reason as to why many little kids have that dream of being a catcher in baseball.Every kid used to say "I want to catch one handed like Johnny Bench",and eventually they will learn that there is no one like him and that he is one of the best catchers ever in the game of baseball.

Jackie Robinson - I think Jackie gave a new definition to the word "courage".To be able to play while people are downing you,calling you names,racial slurs,sending you death threats,and to be able to ignore that shows so much courage.At first,he wasn't a fan favorite just because of his race.Then they saw that he's better than many of the white ballplayers during that time,setting a record of stealing home 19 times in his career.I think he changed the way not only how baseball was played,but how one person looked at another.They didn't look and judge by race,but they judged you for the person that you are.I sometimes even think he was more important than Martin Luther King Jr.,if that's possible.

Answer 9

The San Diego Chicken

Morgana The Kissing Bandit

Mark The Bird

The Phillie Fanatic

The Guy and his Son Who Climbed Out of the Stands At Comisky Park a Few Years Ago And Beat Up On The Umpire

They would all be more interesting than any of the overpaid losers now playing  

Answer 10

1-Ted Williams---simply cause in my eyes, he is the best to have played the game. Also to see if his children were actually loyal to him or just out to get what they can.

2- Lou Gehrig---one of the very best to play the game and over came alot. Prior to beign sick, and while being sick.

3- Pete Rose---to ask him what REALLY happened, and if he is even more bitter of not beign allowed in HOF, and who directly does he blame.

4- Jackie Robinson----to ask him what exactly it was like and what exactly he went through coming into the Major Leagues, beign the first African American and if his mates treated him respectfully.

5- A-Rod-----to see if he REALLY is as g*y as I think he is. My GayDar goes whacky when seeing him.

4.)Phil Niekro. He was an awesome pitcher who dominated using off speed pitches, which is what I would have to do because I don't throw hard at all.

Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Babe Ruth, Jackie Robinson, and Mickey Mantle.
