They paint Gibson as aloof with reporters he didn't know but otherwise a very humorous guy within the clubhouse. He refused to fraternize with the opposition before games and don't care approach him on the day he was pitching. IMO, a true competitor who was one of the best pitchers ever. Unfairly compared to Sandy Koufax but I'd take Gibson's career over Sandy's, regardless of the perfect games, no hitters, etc. Of course Gibson had a no-no IIRC. Oh, and nobody was better in a big game. Starting in 1964 (when he beat my Yankees twice) he threw 8 consecutive complete games in the World Series, winning 7 of them. They don't make them like Bob Gibson anymore. Been following the horns since the Coliseum had a Roman playing there.

Just don’t be a professional autograph collector looking to resell his stuff. I also heard that new players had to be physically pushed over to work with him/get advice. But once they got past it, they loved his help. But getting back on topic, having Gibson go back out there and plunking cheating Astros players would be great. When I saw him in person I was amazed at how great he looked for his late 70s.
