Are you kidding? Where's Willie Stargell!?!?

And you can hardly include Buck Leonard and Sadaharu Oh when you say at the top that this is for MLB First Basemen.

Why is Ernie Banks on this list? He was a shortstop. He might have played a few games at first toward the end of his career, but so did Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle, and lots of other good hitters who were too old to field other positions...

Are you choosing to leave Mark Mcgwire off this list, or forgetting to? His numbers would certainly put him at least on a par with Harmon Killebrew, and ahead of Sisler and Anson...what are you doing, cribbing this list from some old book and making insertions and deletions on a whim? Seriously, why is Bagwell on the list if Big Mac isn't? Don't tell me you think Bagwell wasn't juicing? and Mcgwire was?...OK...

What about Jason Giambi? Just kidding

Todd Helton will deserve to be on that list one day, if he doesn't deserve to be there already.
