....as a San Diego Surf Dawg?

What an absolute foolish thing to do. Somebody should tell this GBL clown that the HOF has the final say as to what cap a player wears when inducted. We can thank Wade Boggs back in 2001 for that when the Devil Rays were going to pay him to go in as a Devil Ray.
Rickey should take the money and do what he does best...steal it.

Maybe they're trying to give Rickey the money, but they'd have to catch him first....
From being ejected in the first inning during Little League Day at Tony Gwynn Stadium in San Diego and then spending the next nine inninngs in the stands rotating seats throughout the ballpark to sit with different little league teams to driving through the desert in a pickup truck with a lettuce farmer to reach Yuma by game time after being removed from his flight for not hanging up his cellphone fast enough, Rickey embraced the intimacy of the independent minors and demonstrated his love for the game regardless of where he was playing.
"Not hanging up his cell phone fast enough"? heh.

Sorry Surf Dawgs, everyone knows he's going into the Hall of Fame as an Oakland Athletic.

Slick shoes?! Are you crazy?!

Amen.
Maybe the GBL could have their own HOF and Rickey could be the 1st ever inducted....has anybody been elected to 2 HOF's?

gomanute would prefer to see Manute Bol in the boxing hall of fame than the hockey hall of fame.
gomanute is aware that defeating William "The Refrigerator" Perry at boxing, or anything is easy, but gomanute believes that Manute Bol still showed that Manute Bol is the most talented boxer alive.
goamanute would not mind seeing Manute Bol enter the horse racing hall of fame if boxing is not an option.

gomanute thinks that gofridge is greedy. William Perry is already in two halls of fame: the WWE Hall of Fame and the The Man Show Hall of fame. gomanute would like to see more deserving athletes be inducted into one hall of fame before the undeserving William Perry enters more.

That's what she said. Hey-o!
Anyway, if Rickey wants a third Hall of Fame bid, he should see if the Poker Hall of Fame is willing to take him....
If he's charitable, he would bring Bobby Bonilla along, since that's the only way Bobby will get into a Hall of Fame without buying a ticket....

Obviously, this LIIA just goes to show that MNN is full of PWC ABB.

I'm actually going to that game. Don't know if I can get there early enough to get a replica jersey though.

The Mets are going to honor Rickey's number by trying their best to lose 24 games this month....
