Also, if you look at Morgan's #s, he never hit above .250 after he turned 34.

can you imagine what clemente's arms would have looked like with modern workout methods?

I just took a look at a bunch of photos of Ted and his mucles don't look anything like Bench.
Foxx was definitely NOT on steroids. He doesn't look anything like Bench.
And I have always had my suspicions about Bo.

There were a lot of guys who have never been outed, who were probably on steroids and had muscles like Winfield.
Ron Cey is another guy who looked like he was on some added testosterone.

How was Foxx not like Bench?

That's not true Dbauer. Morgan actually had a resurgent season at the age of 39.
After four years of hitting .250 or lower, he batted .289 and hit 14 homers, his highest total in five years.

Bench was bigger. He looks like has two different forearms on the same arm.

I missed that one, doesn't change the fact that he was a far better player before 35 than after.

This is the runaway winner for stupidist thread of the year, and im pretty sure it will hold the title for the next 12 months

I can't believe you're using a photo of a guy's muscles/vein in which he is in the act of using said muscle. No kidding it's going to look bigger! That's what happens when you're using it! How do they look at the "rest" position?
