  • A true gentleman! Ty Cobb was a great player, but a horrible person...John O'Neil was a great player and a great person.

  • I only ask because I thought you may have a book about Cobb that I haven't read . There are alot of books about him that are not accurate or written from a biased point of view . I know he was a crazy SOB and not a friendly fellow but there were people who really wanted to villainize him even more than he may have deserved

  • @RisingSon011 it's pretty well known

  • @generalbullmoose What is your source for this 'true story' , if you don't mind my asking ?

  • Ty Cobb once refused to room with Babe Ruth on a barnstorming tour because he had heard a rumor that Ruth had black blood. True story.

    Even in a day when bigotry was prevalent, Cobb shocked people with his racism.
