I’m copping these and calling them the Instant Induction Hall Of Fame Holy Grails.
I apologize to Jr. for ever saying that he might have tried the Cream or the Clear. He was too classy for any of that. Griffey Jr. was definitely the natural.
ESPN has a fun little list generator. They show the best 20 position players from the 1990s (no pitchers) and ask you to rank them. Do it and see where you match up with other baseball fans.
I just wish that Griffey would have allowed us a farewell tour.
In an era of scandals and scoundrels Griffey Jr. was the one player that we still wished we could all be.
Its too bad that Griffey wished he could still be him also.
The Kid ……….
made baseball exciting in the early 90s….
for a non contact sport..i still don’t get how so many of these guys get injured all the time…..
I still have a few t shirts from the All Star Cafe that Griff used to co-own with all those elite athletes when times square was still 25% grimy….got some of the posters too..
blast from the past
Griffey rapping with Mix a lot’s hype man kid sensation
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rETID1lEykE
ok……that was horrible..
but LL immortalized him in 4321
Every little boy wanna pick up the mic/
and try to run with the big boys and live up to the real hype/
But that’s like pickin up a ball, playin with Mike/
Swingin at Ken Griffey or challengin Roy to a fight/
If I can get my hands on a Seattle Pilots Griffey throwback I’m good.
Danny Ferry resigns as GM of Cleveland Cavaliers
^ If u still think he’s staying in Ohio I will personally make a Drano shake for you…2 outta 3 people who made the Cavs relevant are gone…only way this is feasible is if Phil J or Avery is coming thru…and I don’t see it…
And weren’t the Griffey’s the knock off Grant Hills? I never liked these BTW…
$yk, you mean the grant hill Filas?
Danny Ferry , still can’t beleive that guy became a GM…
Duke players fux up as players…and they’re starting to get that same rep as GMs….billy king in philly and now danny ferry….

This was done taking steroids into account.
Whatever happened to Barry Larkin? Bernie Williams? He never was swolled like that…EMPHATIC (II)
Is there even a small wonder (no sitcom robot) how the Cincinnati Reds became competitive once Jr left?
Yeah get, take the full bubble away and they look like Fila knockoffs. And them shazbot Thundercat kix in the bottom pic were even worse.
Jr should’ve came to the Yankees, he would have a couple of Josten’s rings to cement how good of a baseball player he really was.
His hamstrings exploded every time he squatted to piss. Fuck this.
