If you come to west coast hip-hop message board and expect the LA Lakers not to be the main focus, you are insane. SOHH is extremely east coast biased, so it's no susprise you like the sports section there.

SOHH does have a east coast bias but it is not nearly as bad as the laker bias this place exhibits.

Babe Ruth all day everyday.  He was a excellent pitcher.  If he started his career as a everyday player he would be well over 800 home runs.  He lost quite a few Home Runs because of backwards rules they had when he had played.  He played in bigger ball parks and played a lot more games in the season when you count in barn storming and exhibition games.  You need to read the book The Year Babe Ruth hit 104 home runs and then you will realize this guy was head and shoulders above anyone that has played this game.  And he did clean, something Bonds didn't do.

I agree bro..
Tho in all Honesty if it ain't Boxing or Basketball I really don't check it anymore.
I try and Keep Boxing in the mix here at Dubcc with a thread or two here and there
when a good boxing card or fight is gonna go down. Hoop's well... Lakers all day.

Congrat's to Griffey tho.. (I still remember when dude was rookie)
To tell the truth tho, Baseball for me has fallen off and I really haven't paid attention to it
since around 91-92, with all the trades and constant player movement in the game it's hard
to follow a team and invest in them like we did back n the day, it has lost it's "Honor".
(Tho by instinct I still check for the Dodgers)

Football, I can care less about that sport.
I just love when they say on T.V that it's the worlds most popular sport...LMAO
(World as in the U.S. maybe, If the mean worldwide it is football only it's pronounced Futbol.

congrats to Griffey; he finally got to 600 (i saw finally cause his injury-riddled seasons in the past few years).


im guessing the Dominator is done for good this time; i don't see him making another comeback now as a player.
maybe a coach for goalies or something; he's had an amazing career.

One only wonders what Griff could've accomplished if he'd stayed healthy...

And I really hope, and I believe most of all baseball fans agree, that he stayed clean.  I think he did and hopefully he won't get dragged through the mud.

Ruth wasn't even the greatest player in his era, let alone ever. Look up Josh Gibson.

Congrats to Griffey, I remember him in the minor leagues, as the San Bernardino single A team was in San Bernardino in the late 80's, and he had a stop there and they called him Bubba and made mention his dad was Ken Griffey. Dude went on hit a home run into the street... lol... and he was hitting him out the park, literally out of the park and into the streets. Needless to say his stay in San Bernardino was very short lived and now has his number retired by the San Bernardino team.

As for this board. It has it's biased, but in the ToT it's the worst. At least here it's justified. It's like on the music board, put a poll on and Dogg Pound and Game win all day. In sports it's the Lakers. On ToT, news happens that's history making and the only thing you see is Ron Paul people posting the evils of the NAU, which doesn't even exist.

I've loved a white girl or 2...  ;)

Greatest player of all time is Willie Mays... straight up. Maybe even Ted Williams, but Willie Mays IMO is the GOAT of baseball.

Griffey > Bonds
If Jr. didn't have those injury plagued seasons, he would've easily eclipse the 700 hr. mark by now. Look up Griffey's numbers in his twenties, in comparsion to Bonds in his twenties, no contest. Then throw in the steroids factor and Bonds couldn't hold a candle to Griffey's career or talent. But I fucks with Barry though (No Homo). Babe Ruth LOL. Dude was a bum. He didn't even play against the best competition of his time.

Ken Griffey is almost impossible to root against, he has always played hard, and the injuries have been unfortunate. Most people say he never juiced because he always sat out so long with his injuries, and they were always broken bones and things like that. I hope that he didn't, and big ups to him for 600.

I think a reason these stories went unheard around here were that everything seems out of season except playoff basketball. Baseball is still heating up, but barely any mention has been made here. I didn't see anything here about John Smoltz' injury, the Cubs being in first place, there is a lot of stuff going on, but there isn't as much discussion.

Bonds>Griffey

I've been saying this since Bonds hat size was normal. Riverside's finest is alway better than someone who just passed by San Bernardino.

Though Bonds and Griffey both had the best swing in baseball throughout the whole 90's, with or without larger hat size.
