Just something funny I saw today!

One of those click-bait threads said "top 25 most feared sluggers of all time"... So I clicked to check it out... It started at 25... With Derek Jeter!... I laughed out loud and closed the thread....

I get a similar chuckle when I read the "best 50 rock guitarists of all time" ... all of them with big-hair bands in the 80s.
