Barca's successes in first class soccer competitions have been proved both in the Spanish Liga and in major European tournaments. The team claim of domestic success is strongly supported with twenty Spanish League titles Logan Mankins Jersey , twenty-five Spanish Cups, nine Spanish Super Cups and two League Cups. Barca awards have extend to European competitions, where it has won three UEFA Champions League, four UEFA Cup Winners' Cup and two UEFA Super Cup . Worldwide Barcelona has won an Intercontinental Cup and World Club Championship. When it comes to winning the Champions League, after Real Madrid, the Catalans are the second Spanish team with the best record in the championship. Since the creation of the Champions League during the 1993-94 season, Bara has participated fifteen times. They claimed consecutive invites from 1997-98 to 2002-03 and after the 2004-05 season until this current season. Between 1960 and 2010, Barcelona has reached the semifinals of Europe's most important clubs?championship in twelve opportunities. In the 2002-03 Champions League, Barcelona won the record of eleven straight wins and along the tournament's history highlights, two of its players, Xavi Hernandez and Carles Puyol, had 100 or more appearances in the championship with the same team. Barca started their competition in the 2010-11 Champions League with a crushing 5-1 win over Panathinaikos in the opening round of group stage. During the second date Bara drew 1-1 with Rubin Kazan, then the two following meetings resulted in a win (2-0) and a draw (1-1) at Copenhagen. Barca's next game in this tournament will be on Nov. 24 against Panathinaikos. In the Spanish La Liga, Barcelona is a team that has shown great ability and a steady growth. FC Barcelona has won the Spanish champions twenty times. Although they have always been under the shadow of Real Madrid, who has 31 league titles. In the 2010-11 Spanish League, Barca has recorded ten wins Leonard Johnson Jersey , one defeat and one draw, something that definitely makes them look like a team that has great potential to reach the final. During the current season Barcelona has only faced lower-level teams that are ranked in the middle and lower end of the standings. The first meeting was a 3-0 win against Racing Santander, and then followed a 0-2 defeat to newly promoted Hercules, that came after three consecutive wins against Atletico Madrid and Athletic Bilbao and Sporting Gijon respectively. After being tied 1-1 at Mallorca, Real Madrid clinched first place away from Barcelona with Madrid 6-1 win against Racing. After that misfortuned event, Barcelona completed a run of six consecutive wins, but it still was not enough to get Madrid off from the first place. Those six wins were also against low-level teams, such as Real Zaragoza, Sevilla, Valencia and others. The latest victory was an 8-0 pounding of Almeria, a team that ranks in nineteenth place in the tournament. Barcelona is currently second with 31 points and waiting for their next meeting on November 29, which finally will be measured against Real Madrid. This will be an opportunity both teams to show who really deserves to be tournament.There's a very famous limited-edition 1988 lithograph by renowned sports artist Ron Lewis that features eleven then-living members of the elite 500 Home Run Club. The litho, which is aptly entitled "500 Home Run Hitters Club," was produced in conjunction with an Atlantic city show in 1988 at which these baseball greats gathered. A full sized (22.5 x 37 inches) litho signed by all eleven members can sell anywhere from $1,200 to $2,000 through memorabilia auction houses or on eBay. Only 1000 copies were produced.
It should be noted that all eleven members -- Ted Williams Lavonte David Jersey , Frank Robinson, Harmon Killebrew, Reggie Jackson, Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Mike Schmidt, Ernie Banks, Eddie Mathews, and Willie McCovey -- are also members of the MLB Hall-of-Fame. Three of them -- Williams, Mantle, and Mathews -- are now deceased.
In 1988 there were only fourteen members of this elite slugger's club, including deceased Hall-of-Famers Babe Ruth, Jimmie Foxx, and Mel Ott. Twenty years later in 2008, there are twenty-three members. And Kevin Pamphile Jersey , it's entirely possible that two more (Gary Sheffield and Carlos Delgado) will join the club in 2009.
Here is my question: Considering all the controversy regarding the so-called "steroid era," does hitting 500 home runs automatically guarantee someone a HOF plaque in Cooperstown as it once did?
No one can deny that hitting 500 or more homers is an amazing feat. Think about it. Of all the men who have played big league baseball over the years, only twenty-three have done it. However, I believe the sports writers who select the Hall-of-Fame inductees each year are now looking beyond the home run numbers. Before casting their votes, they'll consider other offensive stats -- such as lifetime batting average, number of career hits, and RBI. They may also take the player's defensive skills into consideration. And, something that will be looked at very closely is whether or not that player has ever been linked to steroids.
Case in point: Mark McGwire was passed over in his first year of eligibility despite his 583 career home runs. The writers will tell you that his overall numbers were lacking. So, being denied entry into the HOF had nothing to do with his connection to steroids and HGH? Right.
In two years, Rafael Palmeiro will be eligible. I believe that he, too, will be passed over despite having 3020 hits to go along with 569 career homers -- which makes him a member of an even more elite group of players who have 3000 hits and 500 home runs. And it's all because he tested positive for steroids and left the game in disgrace.
