Mazel tov to the Hawk
Sorry for the digression, but "the Hawk", Andre Dawson, deserves a big mazel tov. Dawson was finally voted in to the Hall of Fame, his 9th time being on the ballot.
In todays era of the long ball, his home run stats don't measure up, but in his day he was one of the best. He was a classy player, and a leader, and he earned this election.
Have they announce what team he will go in under? It is funny that I think of him as an Expo before a Cub considering I started following baseball in 1986.
I remember growing up loving him/fearing him. Also, do you remember the classic episode of This Week In Baseball where he visited and the "chicken" was running around scared (b/c he was "hawk"). Lechaim
