Sunday, July 26th, 2009

watch the video.. i don’t know how long it will last.. but his speech was absolutely epic..

“I loved the game of baseball,” Henderson said. “That’s why it was so hard for me to walk away from the game. I thought, ‘If Satchel Paige can start playing Major League Baseball at the age of 45, then with my dedication, hard work and desire I could play until my body said it was time to hang it up.”
