I'm certain you didn't know, but while Babe Ruth held the record for the most home runs for many years, he also held the record for the most strike outs, so your dishonest data smells of some hidden agenda...

My statistic was based on a *ratio* of Ignores to Peoplemarks. Did you know Babe Ruth's ratio of home runs to strikeouts was only 1.86 (1330/714)? Compare that to Ken Griffey, Jr. at 2.64 (1323/501)... nearly 50% more! Oh, and Sammy Sosa's is a whopping 3.68 (2110/574). Don't you hate it when facts get in the way of convenient analogies?

Paul,

You may continue posting to me if you wish, but I won't read your drivel any further...

I wish you would reconsider. I know that his online persona may not show it, but deep down Jeff is a very sensitive person. When he finds out that someone who has 57 ignores and has been banned for 9 boards will not listen to him anymore....well...he is going to be very hurt.

Bill
