So the Reggie Jackson playing for the Yankees example is "dumb"? OK, how can you explain the A's going to 5 World Series in a row, and winning 3 of them, all with a "cancer" playing in RF?
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
the A's had more cancers than the yankees, that's how. they were legendary for their in-fighting. just like the yankees were a few years later. i don't think one player is going to ruin any chemistry when everyone is insane.
and i'm pretty sure when kb brought up reggie, he referred to oakland and new york. it's a bad example.
