Amen to Cong's thanks to Burns; Buck O'Neil vaulted to the top of my "one of the neatest people I never met" list. I bought two of his autographed baseball cards, one to leave each of my sons. I was truly saddened by his death.

If Buck O'Neil doesn't get in the Hall of Fame, it should be re-named the "Hall of Shame" until he does. He did more for the game with his kindly demeanor while telling about times that had to be painful, with no bitterness, just a clear, deep, and abiding love for the game.

What an absolutely classy gentleman. The world is a lesser place for his absence.
