RIP to John"Buck" O'Neil

Buck O'Neil died over the weekend at the age of 94,but his impact on the Negro League&also to Major League Baseball is timeless. the Man touched so many lives. He gave a great speech at this year's Hall of Fame Introduction for Major League baseball which snubbed him again,which is a Shame. I mean all Negro League Players should be enshrined into Baseball's Hall of Fame as far as I'm Concerned. all American&Foreign Players should always acknowledge the Negro league Players&especially African-American Ball players. Buck O'Neil is a true Pioneer&trand-setter. He up-lifted so many souls&Sprits. he was a Great Man&true Ambassador.we are gonna miss his Soulful pressence,but we have a lifetime of a Man who truly made a Great impact on Professional sports&More important to Society at large. RIP.
