J.D.S. ldols

Old school Nike commercial featuring Lil Penny, Anfernee Hardaway, and Nick "Miss-3-free throws in playoffs" Anderson....

When I was a kid I used to be obsessed with Ken Griffey Jr.
The baseball cards(rookie card from Upper Deck), paraphernalia, and personally, the closest resemblance to that sweet swing.(J/K) I was a huge MJ fan and don't let me get started with "Penny" Hardaway(not Anfernee but Penny, big difference). No matter how much love I have for basketball, I will always be one of those fans rooting for "The Kid". One of the best outfielders of my time and maybe one of best swings ever(Mesmerizing...come on, who didn't try to jock his stance in the box)...

10 golden gloves for outfielding, AL MVP, All-Star MVP, 2582 hits, 597 home runs, and 1174 RBI's
On the field, his defense was tenacious, offense was like non-other and off the field he was simply a class act.
Thanks for being a great role model!!!
