Even at 33-67, I think the first 50 years are overrepresented when you consider the number of teams and roster size. We're talking about roughly 2800 players in the first 50 years vs. 24000 in the second 50 (12%).
The 33 represent the top 1.1% of players to play in that era. The 67 represent the top 0.03% since expansion.
I think a 25-75 split would have been a little better.
