i suspect this thread (and some like it) are less about the subject, and more about personality clashes between posters, and rubbing in what is perceived as superiority of knowledge/understanding.

guthrie is not a star, and he has probably not lived up to early billing and perhaps his draft selection. but he is a solid and largely dependable player.
some of the criticisms are justified at times, although far from as fatal as they are made out.
others, though... his hair? what year is this, 1952?
