    Default Jim Rice FINALLY in the Hall of Fame!!!

    AWESOME for Jim Rice, what a player! He's going in with Ricky "Ricky Be Ricky" Henderson. I think Jim Rice has always deserved to be in the Hall, I'm happy he's finally in and soon we'll see #14 hanging next to 9, 8, 1, 6, 4, 27 and 42 out in right field

    Good for Rice.

    Freakin Ricky "And now I am the greatest of all time" Henderson. What a self aggrandizing hot dog he was. I can't wait to hear his acceptance speech. The Roy Jones Jr of baseball.

    Oh Ricky was HILARIOUS....he talked to himself and about himself in the 3rd person, one of his teammates heard him as he was walking away from the plate after a strikeout "It's ok Ricky, you'll get 'em next time Ricky"

    Ricky even saw John Olerud and said "Hey I once had a teammate in Seattle who wore a helmet out in the field".....and Olerud said "Yeah that was me"...hahaha you can't make that shit up man

    I think it's time they stopped retiring numbers.. unless the person is arguably the greatest ever... like Gretzky or Jordan. They'll eventually run out of numbers. In stead, they should put the jersey out there with his name on it.

    Im glad Rice has finally gotten in,but for owner collusion he would have had that one last year and had automatic numbers.
    Now if Blyleven will finally get in,4th all time on strikeouts,best curveball anyone has ever seen,287 wins on some of the worst teams in baseball history......

    Hey buddy retiring numbers is good AND you only retire the numbers worn by players who spent the majority of their great career in one place for example TED WILLIAMS and YAZ.

    Anywho even the Celtics and Yankees haven't retired ALL the numbers.

    Eventually they'll run out of numbers. Honor the MAN, not the number.

    Bert Blyleven was good, but how many all star appearances did he make? 2. How many Cy Youngs did he win? 0. How many MVPs did he win? 0. And how is he better than Jack Morris? At least Morris has appeared in 5 ASGs.

    Now I'm not saying leave him out, but I don't think he's a no brainer, either.

    Ricky was the man. I think there was one where Ricky was calling some one on the phone. "This is Ricky on behalf of Ricky".
