Who would you people say is the most overrated in any sport?

I would say
soccer: David Beckham
Basketball: Allen Huston or Vince Carter
Football: Eli Manning, Ricky Williams
Hockey: Ed Belfor, Danny Healtley
Baseball: Barry Bonds, Curt Shilling, David Wells, Jason Gaimbi, David Ortiz (he's a DH how hard is that!!)
Over all: Tiger Woods, (Roger Feder (spelling), Andy Roddick (it's F'ing tennis)

As for underrated

Soccer: Therry Henry, Wayne Rooney, Carlos Ranaldo (Man U), Del Piero (Italy)
Basketball: Kevin Garnett, Jalen Rose, Richard Hamilton and Tim Duncan
Football: Carnell (Cadilic) Williams, Antanio Gates, Tolimson (spelling)
Hockey: Kris Draper, Simon Gagne, Steve Yzerman, Andrew Cassels
Baseball: Orlando Hudson, Roy Haliday, Dontrelle Willis
As for the most underrated player it's: Ichro Suzki (1,000+ hits in 4 seasons ohmy.gif) the guy is awsome plus he plays for a not so great team

fenway may have the highest prices, but its also got the smallest capacity, im not sure what the prices are though so they might make up for that

Rylinkus- You may hate on me for this but...oh well.
I was at Fenway a couple of years ago for free. Thats right free. I sat about 15-18 rows back from the 3rd base dugout when the Yankees were in town...then I moved closer over by the 1st base dugout. It was an awesome game, the Sox won after a 7th inning home run by Varitek, I believe. The Yankees just couldnt come back. It was game 3 of the series, and Sox won the series with that game. I want to say July of 03 I was out there. We did a job for Today's Collision Repair, they gave us 4 tickets and it was one of the greatest experiences Ive been through. Cant say THE best, wife would kill me biggrin.gif Anyways, you probably dont care...just thought I would sprinkle you with that story after seeing your post.

And about seeing live baseball...just go to ebay or something, sometimes you get lucky...or travel a few miles and watch your team on the road like me. I watch the Sox when they come down to play the Royals. And its guaranteed tickets! Had 8 rows back from 3rd base dugout this year . I live in Nebraska so thats the closest they come for the money. Tickets get cheaper when the teams arent that great. Not sure where you could go though...Pittsburgh? Might be cheap.
