I know he is on a rotten team, but come on he is one of the greats in baseball history and he is comeing back from major injuries, can the man get some props?
August 18, 200521 yr Me and Ramp are probably his biggest fans around here(outside of felo of course).... I can speak for him when I say it's great to see Kenny doing his thing again.
August 18, 200521 yr I'll give him props. He has come back strong this season, and if not for being in Cincinnatti he would be getting alot more props than just me and you. I hope if they decide to do a waiver-wire trade on him he gets the chance to go to a contender. Also, he is the ultimate class act.
August 18, 200521 yr Author He is probably my single favorite athlete in the 9 years I have been watching sports and for the last 4 years all I have heard is that he is washed up or that he needs to retire ir that he is stealing the Reds money. Where are the bashers now, where are the people in Cincinnati who BOOED him on opening day last year, where are those people now?
August 18, 200521 yr 2nd fav player in baseball behind Edmonds. Always has been and always will be. I love what Ken is doing and I'm glad he's been healthy *knock on wood* I would love to have him on the Cards.
August 18, 200521 yr Me and Ramp are probably his biggest fans around here 905967[/snapback] I feel HIGHLY left out ... I wake up everyday thankful that griffey is healthy and hitting like he should be

I wake up everyday thankful that griffey is healthy and hitting like he should be 905980[/snapback] I second that, he still scares the sh!t out of me anytime he runs hard or slides for a ball.

I wake up everyday thankful that griffey is healthy and hitting like he should be 905980[/snapback] :lol I knew I would get that post from at least 1 person. But yeah, Kenny is the man. All the numbers he has put up, without the juice. He's the man.
August 18, 200521 yr If Griffey had not been injured 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004...let's give him 40 homeruns a year in each of those years (undershooting it to be safe). Add those into what he did the rest of his career and what he has done this year, and he would have 626 homeruns. He is 35. We wouldn't give a **** about Bonds because Griffey would be up coming to outhomer him. What could have been.....
August 18, 200521 yr Everyone loves The Kid and wants him to do well. It's a joy for him to be back in old form and kicking all measure of ass.
August 18, 200521 yr Junior Griffey is one of my favorite players of all time. Good to see he's doing well and putting up the numbers he knows he's capable of. I miss him at the Home Run Derby with his backward cap. I always thought that ruled. :super
August 18, 200521 yr Author Ken GriffeyJr. homers (29) on a fly ball to center field. Rich Aurilia scores. Woot! That just happend! GO Jr. and go Reds!
August 18, 200521 yr He's got the talent of an athlete, but the body of a paper doll. I wish he could have avoided so many injuries. It would have been neat to see how things would have gone in the very long run if he weren't so fragile.
August 18, 200521 yr I liked him in Seattle but once he went to Cincy my admiration dropped...I like him a hell of a lot more than Bonds though
August 18, 200521 yr I liked him in Seattle but once he went to Cincy my admiration dropped...I like him a hell of a lot more than Bonds though 906287[/snapback] have you seen him play in cincy? ... 20 games a season for the past 5 years :plain
August 18, 200521 yr such a good looking swing 906418[/snapback] I always liked his swing. It is very unique and almost reminds me of a golf swing at times. It just looks so smoothe.
