    he just made bad decision
    instead of wanting to be in the hall of fame
    he should have run for president of the united states

    I’m not a true baseball fan, but I’m saddened by his passing. He was larger than life and a small of my childhood is now gone. May he rest in peace.

    he was an amazing player
    the fortitude that got him on base a record number of times is the same that got him in trouble with the officials
    he deserves to be in the hall of fame
