Hank Aaron left an indelible mark on MLB players: ‘He was not going to let anything distract him’ (1934-2021) A great Baseball player

I recall when Hank Aaron was chasing Babe Ruth. The signs, the chants the angry outbursts.
"Hank Aaron is Ruthless!"
So friggin' silly and pointless.

Imo, the whole point of sports is to keep you in great physical shape. When it fails that, it becomes a form of entertainment and not much else.

Is the traumatic brain injury from football (real and Europe style), boxing, rugby and other head banging sports of any concern to you? Today's baseball players are extremely fit. It's their job to be best. Hard to imagine a pétanque player running a 4.124 40 yard dash. Here's Babe's position a little more recently youtu.be/WSHzGtPx8zo
