I honestly don't know what you're talking about. I can't think of a single person on the planet that thought Edmonds still had a GG quality glove in the last few years.

(Well, he won 8 Gold Gloves.
Eight.
So someone, somewhere, thought he was a pretty good fielder.)
He won his last GG in 2005, so by 2008, as you were likely implying, it's safe to say that many thought his fielding has likely regressed. But I for one, was surprised at just <i>how</i> far he'd regressed.

There's nothing better than to realize that the good things about youth don't end with youth itself. It's a matter of realizing that life can be renewed every day you get out of bed without baggage. It's tough to get there, but it's better than the dark thoughts. -Lance
