Love looking at my fantasy baseball team and seeing guys get "routine days off"

Cal Ripken rolling in his PED grave
I don't think Cal used PED's. If so, he got ripped off. Setting aside his Iron Man streak he was Derek Jeter before Derek Jeter
 
Who was the player that actually dropped his pants once during a game? I think it was in the 90's? He slid into a base and starting to take his pants down to clean out the dirt and realized "oh shit I am in front of 30,000 people!"
 
Go to work everyday for 15 years before throwing shit around.
No disrespect but I grew up watching a lot of adults go to work everyday sick, hurt, tired etc. Cal played a game and played it 6 months out of the year. Was his dedication and discipline admirable? Of course.

But I also think at a certain point it became more about his ego
 
MLB players work less than teachers do.

I wouldn't say trash, but I think he received an elevated status in the game because of his name and the streak over his actual performance.
Would he have been a better player if he took a day off? Statistically, he was one of the best SS in baseball history. Top 5 or 6
 
ALL SPORTS!!!!!!!!!

I think HS wrestling would be much more interesting with the addition of bats don't you?
swimming is going to be tough with a bat in your hand.
