Rickey Henderson comes to mind as a ballplayer who doesn't care
about winning a championship. I see.
Well, as I recall, Henderson and Clark met in the '89 World Series.
If memory serves, the Rickey and Jose-led A's destroyed the Giants
in four straight.
Does this mean that Rickey Henderson doesn't care about winning a championship, but is SO MUCH BETTER than Will Clark that he can
win without trying? Or does it mean that maybe you know nothing about
what is in a player's heart or mind, because there's just no way
to tell?
Which of the points would you care to concede?

And as I recall, the A's STERIODED their way past the Giants....A series that Clark was seriously sick in (Tonsilitis/high Fever) and he still played through it. Finally Clark, who played half as long as Henderson, STILL has equal and, even more, better
stasts. Henderson...no where near the Heart of Clark.
