  1. Cum Posey is a fascinating figure. He was considered the best African American *basketball* player of his time and then went on to play, manage and eventually own the Homestead Grays, one of the most successful teams in black baseball. He was a great businessman and navigated his team through the Great Depression and segregation and was an absolute force in Negro National League formation and administration.

  2. I made a post about a Negro League Player called Lame Turner, but Ol tomato face is another good one

  3. I’ve gotten berated for making this comment before, but c’mon guys… is Albert Pujols not a funny sounding name..?
