Rest In Peace Ryno!
Was just announced that Ryne Sandberg has passed. Met him at Cubs camp in 2005. He was such a nice kind person!

It's been sounding real bad lately based on how ex-players, jed, and some others have been glowing about his life and past events for weeks now. It seemed inevitable things were winding down quickly.
It makes this CHC/MIL game seem less important though it's very important (MIL/CHC tied for 1st).

I was watching the game when they announced it. What a punch to the gut. May God bless and comfort his family, friends, and fans.

Incredibly, he’s signed tons of autographs through the mail for $10 an item up until a couple weeks ago. Definitely on the Chicago Rushmore. RIP.

When I was 8 in 1985, I got a Boy’s Life magazine with Ryne Sandberg on the cover. A couple of years after that I had a favorite player, and by 1989 I had gained a favorite team.
Rest in peace, Ryno. You were the best.   Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
