Oh I def think Clemente was awesome, one of the all-time greats, but 67 has to be my pic. The last triple crown ever was in 67.

Im currently reading a book on Clemete (it is taking me forever though with everything I have going on right now) Pretty good read thus far. But I haven't even gotten to his Pirate days yet.

I hate Boston and New York. Outside of the 27 Yankees you probably wont see a Red Sox or Yankee on this countdown.
