Hall of Fame Day

Today is Induction Day for the Baseball Hall of Fame. Being inducted today are Rickey Henderson, Jim Rice, and Joe Gordon. Here are my brief thoughts on each:

Rickey: Best player I have ever seen.

Jim Rice: The most feared right handed hitter in the game from 1975-1986.

Joe Gordon: When I realized he was not already in, I was shocked.

Now that Rice is in, hopefully, the other great players of his generation will start to trickle in. Now that Gordon is in, hopefully, people will re-examine some of the old timers. Now that Rickey is in, he gets to give his induction speech.

I can hardly wait for Rickey's speech...
