THANK YOU, JACKIE!


Thank you for being strong. Thank you for believing in yourself.  Thank you for pushing yourself to the limit. Thank you for allowing people to open their eyes...

Thank you for your abilities. Thank you for your words.  Thank you for being the right man at the right time. Thank you for your courage...


Thank you for allowing others to follow. Thank you for your unbelievable talent. Thank you for continuing your journey after baseball.

Thank you... just thank you.

There is so much you can say about Jackie Robinson.  But there is one thing that will always amaze me.  It was never about him.  It was always about the future of diversity in America. He knew that and he fought long and hard to change the way people thought.  He had unbelievable strength and courage, and all I want to say is Thank God for Jackie Robinson.

Love ya, 42! You did it! We stand by you today... on your day, no matter what.

Shout out to Mike O'Hara who was part of a documentary last year called "42 Faith". He just tweeted this a short time ago.



Very proud of Mike as you know, but forever proud of Jackie for breaking barriers!
