There are not enough keys on the board for me to type about the contributions Jackie Robinson made not only to baseball, but to the United States. Jackie was a braver and better man than I could ever claim to be, and I would like to see him get more recognition.

Speaking of recognition.. There was no mention of Willie Mays, Reggie Jackson, or Barry Bonds in the video. How does Willie Mays not get a shout out? I gotta assume Barry didn’t get one because they didn’t want to attach any controversy to such a worthy cause. I’m glad everybody’s thanking Jackie, but keep in mind, he’s the guy responsible for Elijah Dukes too.
