Yes we have to wait until 5 for the official announcement, but it's pretty much guaranteed. Congrats to Big Jim Thome on becoming a 1st ballot Hall of Famer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OkMAlf9UCR8 Sammy Sosa can visit your plaque as well if he pays $20 at the door |

saw him at the 75th/Rt 83 Verizon store one time. He's smaller in real life. |

Couldn’t smile long as the depression of that being one of the last great Sox moments set it. Fire Kenny and Hahn if they don’t win the World Series this year. #TimesUp |

Didn't he used to go hunting with Buehrle? If you do that you're cool in my book! |

 Not bad. I wonder if Tom Couston still has his original report. He's the scout who drafted Thome. He'd probably say he had all 5's and 6's with a couple 7's. |

Nope. Not saying Thome was on the juice but LeBron didn't get substantially bigger. A-Rod didn't either but we all know what he did. |

Don't get your angle here, Nas. Are you saying that the LeBron in the Irish jersey is the same size as the LeBron in the Heat jersey? |

Are you suggesting LeBron is on something? Have you never been able to build muscle by just getting older and working out? |

I don't think Thome was on anything, but the comparisons aren't similar. Thome got way bigger. |
