RICKEY HENDERSON BACK IN BASEBALL...AGAIN
The full article from ESPN.com can be found here.
RICKEY HENDERSON signed with the Newark Bears of the independent Atlantic League on Sunday. Henderson played with Newark last season before joining the Los Angeles Dodgers in July.

Henderson is the all-time leader in runs scored, stolen bases and walks (although Bonds is closing in on that one). Rickey Henderson was the greatest lead-off hitter in baseball history, but what he's doing now is just sad. I respect people that love the game and want to keep on playing, but this is a little too ridiculous. Come on Rickey, retire all ready so we can put you into Cooperstown in five years.
