Ha, I'm watching it, too.

I turned on the TV to watch something else with lunch, but I gotta go with this in honor of Ronnie’s HoF induction.

Speaking of which...

Do you think they will engrave “Hall of Fame 2012” of anything of the sort on the side with all of his accomplishments? Is there even room? I haven’t seen it yet…

THEO!

Yes, there is definitely room for that.

You can see it on that photo, in fact. There’s room right above “Nine-Time All-Star”.

Ah, yes, I didn't even look, my bad...

Do you think they will?

Yes.

I think they left that space for that specific reason.

Thanks for posting.

I may delete this later, as “now” won’t really describe it later in the day.

Flipping channels while feeding my daughter and saw this. Wish this had been shown while he was alive.

Seeing all these hall of famers gushing over him might have helped him get in sooner. I knew he was respected but to see Willie Mays, Brooks Robinson, etc praising him and saying he should be in actually made me sad knowing that he passed before he was finally accepted in cooperstown. He should have been in already and i don’t understand why he wasn’t.
