re: Was the Gretzky trade from Edmonton to LA the biggest sports trade ever?

I think some people are confusing biggest trade for most successul trade. At leasy thats only reason I can think of why peoplr are talking abouy championships as reason for how big it is.

Ruth doesnt beat gretzky on trade. I seriously doubt there was a public outcry like it was from, a whole country when wayne was traded. It would be like LeBron being traded in todays 247 cycle
