    Bobby Cox

    As he prepares to be inducted into the Hall of Fame, I remembered this video that MLB Network put together right before the final regular season weekend in 2010. Found it and had to post it. It's worth the six minutes to watch it:

    I am still upset that I got to be there in person for Bobby's last game.

    That should have been a W.

    One of the biggest testament's to Bobby's skillset was the testimony of guys like Bobby Bonilla and Gary Sheffield—players who had the rep of being bad clubhouse guys. Not only did either one of them ever cause a whit of trouble, and both spoke out about the positivity of the situation that Bobby created. Sheffield went out of his way to refer to him as "Mr. Cox" as a token of respect, when he was just "Bobby" to everyone else. He didn't just run an easy clubhouse—he respected the guys but still made it clear what was expected of them.

    Nobody likes that dude. Bobby Cox says F that guy, I'll bet.

    This coming from one who defended him for quite a while.
