Thanks.

Also, in apologizing for it being so late, he wrote "Dying didn't help."

I assume he meant "almost" dying? LOL. He is still among the land of the living. To my knowledge, at least.

Schrödinger's Spaceman?

Just got this one in yesterday. Might be very bad timing if the news from this morning is true.

I can't believe it. After you posted this I looked it up:

"Rickey Henderson, a Baseball Hall of Famer and MLB’s all-time stolen bases leader, has died, The Post has confirmed.

He was 65 and passed while in the Oakland area on Friday after battling pneumonia, per TMZ."

Too young.

Stunned to learn this!

How is it that ESPN's site - neither their landing page OR the MLB page - makes no mention of this yet??

That’s why I said…if it’s true. I’ve seen rumors all day about it. Even on TMZ and the local news. But nothing on MLB or ESPN.

It's reported in the San Jose Mercury News, NBC Sports Bay Area, Newsweek.com, NY Post and the Sporting News.

Still nothing on ESPN...
