If Ty Cobb keeps on with his training {deas his club will be the most popular outfit in the big leagues. Ty never did subscribe to the idea of hard work on training trips.

Players may sleep as late as they like 80 long as they report for afternoon practice at 2 o'clock. Any player at any time on the road can use taxicabs. There are no training rules at all. ‘This will appeal to players of other elubs as a dream of bliss with gilt edges and pink lining.
