"My argument is simply that I have read enough and tried to learn enough to have a good picture of what baseball was like back then, and the environment in which it existed, and I (or anyone else on this board) need not have to listen to every argument of yours being that none of us no anything becuase we werent there."

Wow, another ignorant teenager who thinks he knows everything.

I have not been making an argument. I have been stating FACTS. If you weren't there, you can't know. You had to have been there, to experience it, to KNOW.

And if you think books can substitute for real life experience, I pity you. Reading twenty novels about combat will not even give you a clue about what being shot at in anger is like. No Clancy or Bond novel can give you even a hint about what a real war is like. No porn novel or sex manual can teach you what real sex is like. No book, no movie, nothing can prepare you for what it is like to watch your own children being born.

It's called experience. Get some before you mouth off.

If you're playing pre-1947 American baseball, then the All-American Mod (a namefiles/ethnicites/nation/cities file pack) is for you.
