Collecting baseball cards is how I got to know baseball players in the 80s and 90s. And from that Ricky Henderson was my favorite player during that time. His swag busted off the screen. And he always talked in the 3rd person. RIP to a real bona-fide legend.

Why are you making this about you? There are a lot of people that are from places other than where they are associated with. The Jackson family are not from Los Angeles. They are from Gary, Indiana. Aretha Franklin is not from Detroit. She is actually from Memphis. Ricky Henderson is from Chicago.

This thread is about Ricky Henderson. Stop cluttering the thread up with your bull.

Henderson left Chicago at two, to move to… Pine Bluff, Arkansas.

Then Oakland. You literally are trying to mj born in Brooklyn, Ricky Henderson.

Aretha Franklin left Memhis as a kid, but she was born in Memphis. The Jackson family left Gary, Indiana as kids, but they are still from Gary, Indiana. Stop making this thread about you. It is about Ricky, Henderson.

Damn. I feel like a piece of my childhood died. He was a great late game hitter.

Rest in Peace Mr. Henderson

Why are you making this about you?

You are the one who did that by forcing your city into this thread.

Ricky Henderson never claimed Chicago. He claimed Oakland because that where he is from.

Let it go.

A player could steal 60 bases for 22 consecutive seasons and Rickey Henderson would still have more!
