This one just barely qualifies, but this is a photo of HOF Robin Yount, my good friend Tom Duino (left) and me (right) taken after finishing up a round of golf on The Leatherstocking GC at Cooperstown in July 1999. I played golf in the foursome behind Robin and his brother Larry the day before Yount got inducted into the HOF with Nolan Ryan, George Brett and Orlando Cepeda.
I have a sharpie in my hand because Yount just knocked out an autograph for me on a Leatherstocking GC golf ball. We had a chance to talk with Robin and Larry a few times throughout the day. Robin Yount is truly one of the nicest players that I ever met and he's one hell of a golfer to boot!
Did anyone know that Robin Yount actually considered quitting baseball to persue a career as a PGA pro at one point? One terrific athlete and a great guy with no attitude.
