Greatest pitcher ever...  PERIOD&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You completely forgot the 18 Gold Glove awards.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Even though it was 17 seasons of 15 or more wins you can stretch that out to 20 seasons of 13 or more and all those 20 seasons he threw 198 or more innings.  Finally an 8 time all-star, a number which just sounds to low for Maddux.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Kyle James</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 10 Dec 2008 20:28:24 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: A Tribute To The Professor</title><link>http://www.braveslaunchpad.com/2008/12/a-tribute-to-the-professor/#comment-4316099</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I remember heading to a game in the mid 90's with a friend and his son.  He leaned over to his son and said "this is not only the greatest pitching staff this season, it's probably the greatest pitching staff that has ever been and will ever be.  You're really lucky to get to see this son".  He and I got it but I don't think his son really did.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Maddux you are the man and will be missed by this Braves fan!&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Ross Carlson</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 10 Dec 2008 16:22:13 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: A Tribute To The Professor</title><link>http://www.braveslaunchpad.com/2008/12/a-tribute-to-the-professor/#comment-4315601</link><description>&lt;p&gt;David, the typo was a tribute to your last name.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">PWHjort</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 10 Dec 2008 15:57:28 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: A Tribute To The Professor</title><link>http://www.braveslaunchpad.com/2008/12/a-tribute-to-the-professor/#comment-4309626</link><description>&lt;p&gt;For more ridiculous stats, and a very good post about why Maddux is the best pitcher in history, read the excellent case from fanhouse: &lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="http://mlb.fanhouse.com/2008/12/09/from-the-windup-greg-maddux-retires-as-the-greatest-pitcher-in/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://mlb.fanhouse.com/2008/12/09/from-the-windup-greg-maddux-retires-as-the-greatest-pitcher-in/"&gt;http://mlb.fanhouse.com/200...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Royi</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 10 Dec 2008 10:35:50 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: A Tribute To The Professor</title><link>http://www.braveslaunchpad.com/2008/12/a-tribute-to-the-professor/#comment-4309621</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I agree, a class act.

I've always loved Maddux and he was amazing to watch. I'm a Braves fan but when he pitched for one of the teams after he left the Braves I would watch him pitch because he was always amazing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He will be missed. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">trickjarrett</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 10 Dec 2008 09:52:34 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: A Tribute To The Professor</title><link>http://www.braveslaunchpad.com/2008/12/a-tribute-to-the-professor/#comment-4308909</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Pretty cool stuff no doubt&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;hes&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.privacy-tools.at.tc" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="www.privacy-tools.at.tc"&gt;www.privacy-tools.at.tc&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Jess Westerly</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 10 Dec 2008 09:48:31 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: A Tribute To The Professor</title><link>http://www.braveslaunchpad.com/2008/12/a-tribute-to-the-professor/#comment-4308788</link><description>&lt;p&gt;"Weather or not you believe ..."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Weather?!
