Default Got a chance to go to the Baseball Hall of Fame Museum today.

I'll post pictures in a couple days when I get home, but damn....what an experience. I saw many artifacts. Nolan Ryan is the man. Also, Bagwell should have been voted in this year. What a fuggin ripoff!

I was there for the first time recently, what a great place. One neat things I saw was a pile of baseballs from the late 1800's that were painted gold and labeled with the team name and the game score. Yankee fans will think they have died and gone to heaven when they walk into Cooperstown.

I went about 10 years ago and it was great. Nolan Ryan might be the man but the Babe is the King.
