The fact that there's anyone besides Joe Mauer is on this list is an utter disgrace

Uvueoula's next poll will be the greatest Yankee with the nickname of Babe

We expect more from you here at the Mall Uva, Let's pull yourself together

lol

Gerk you seem to be a bit perplexed on the definition of the word decade

Typically, well actually in everyday vernacular, a decade spans 10 years, not 3 as you and some others who have chosen Joe Mauer with unconditional absolution seem to believe

How many catchers have won batting titles in the last 50 years, much less two, and much less three this year?

I will wait until you have found the answer. John David Booty and I await your return
