    I use to love watching Sandberg play. Outstanding defensive player and when you look up the words professional hitter, you will see a picture of Sandberg.

    He was a QB when he was in High School, good thing he made the right choice to play Baseball.

                    Look up the definition of "cliche" and you will find asianflow's post.

                    No, but seriously, his number should be retired and its good to see the Cubs are giving him that honor. Sandberg's already had to wait longer than he should have for his call to Cooperstown. Its good the Cubs aren't making him wait further.

                            Long overdue by the Cubs

                            BTW didn't they retire his number after his first retirement? I sorta remember that.
