Rickey Henderson is the greatest of all time

rickeyrookie.jpgJust think, five years ago Rickey Henderson was playing against the Long Island Duck and now he's a good bet to to be named a Hall of Famer in January.

I found some hilarious Rickey stories on Fan IQ, some of which will remind you of the meaning of LOL.

Here are two, to get you started.

- In the early 1980s, the Oakland A’s accounting department was freaking out. The books were off $1 million. After an investigation, it was determined Rickey was the reason why. The GM asked him about a $1 million bonus he had received and Rickey said instead of cashing it, he framed it and hung it on a wall at his house.


- A reporter asked Henderson if Ken Caminiti’s estimate that 50 percent of Major League players were taking steroids was accurate. His response was, “Well, Rickey’s not one of them, so that’s 49 percent right there.”
