Most posts in here are quite calm and supportive. He was a very worthy rival and his achievements stand on their own as a player at a losing franchise. We approach this guy with some heart, which I think speaks well of our fans. But if anyone ever suffered because of the Apple he bit into at UK, it was this poor wanker. He identified with his most remarkable overall feature - being an overweight freak who could still stand in and play an incredible tough sport. Of course, they laughed at Babe Ruth, Tony Gwynn and John Kruk too, all of whom had weighty issues. Where he went off the tracks was in his sense of entitlement and no one sponsors that better than UK. Elam.............no need to go on.
