The point is the complaint is unwarranted, get over the idea that he should get more attention. @ Bruce, I know Musial was the greatest NL hitter, the point is Cardinal fans seem to think he never gets the credit he deserved which in my opinion is BS, same as the Puljos argument.

I don't get that notion. Although I do hate the Cards, it's because the Phils never won there in the 80's. I wouldn't rate them the 2nd most hated team though. If your logic is all the World Series titles they have (I think it's 12, 2nd highest), then I understand. the Cardinals are the second most hated team in baseball

I do not live in the Midwest, however, but in Virginia.And fifthly- @tedkerwin- Stan Musial <em>was</em> the greatest NL hitter ever; look at his numbers. OK, first of all- psst, folks; Firefox…

The gateway to the west has a little inferiority complex.
