The town is awesome. The Hall is unbelievable. Holy shit, the Hall is unbelievable. Meeting Pete Rose today was fantastic.

Tried going to Ommegang on our way out of town for the day and there was a damn Death Cab for Cutie concert going on. Big disappointment. We're going to try again tomorrow.

I don't think it's a fact that he'll never get in. Bud Selig isn't going to be the commissioner much longer.

Then I can finally visit Cooperstown. I refuse to go to the HOF until Rose is in. Consider it my own one man boycott.

I ain't mad at you, but you are doing yourself a disservice. It is unbelievable. Easily the coolest place I have ever been. Seriously.

Trust me, I know it. I made this decision at least 15 years ago, and I can't go back on it now.

I paid $60 for the auto (on a baseball) and he inscribed "Hit King" for free. The pic was free, as well.

I'm hoping to get in to town early enough this morning to get a Frank Robinson autograph. He's charging $80 for a baseball.

I would have signed his name on the baseball for you and only charged you $20. Did you mention to him that you own the OC, he may want to be a member or the very least he could do is buy some advertising, considering you paid $60 for him to sign a baseball that one day you will end up outside being used for batting practice by your future son and his friends.

Sweet picture with Pete btw.
