    Rickey Is Going to the HOF



    Rickey Henderson was my favorite ball player of all time. I wanted to be Rickey when I was in little league, I would even wiggle my fingers as I stole my way around the bases.

    Here are some great little memories from Rickeys playing days that were on espn.com today

    Memories of Rickey Henderson - ESPN

    All Time Leader in Stolen Bases
    All Time Leader in Runs
    All Time Leader in Lead Off Home Runs
    Single Season Stolen Base Record
    2nd All time in Walks
    3,055 Hits


    His lead over Lou Brock for all time stolen bases is more then the total of the Active steals leader Juan Pierre's 429.

    Good, maybe his rookie cards I have will be worth something

    Reading your post about Rickey I just imagine him saying all that about himself while talking in the third person.

    I smell a CyBookie on how many times he refers to himself as Rickey during his speech.
