Cancer sucks and 65 is far too young, and getting younger all the time.

He was one of my favorites as a kid of the 80s.  I remember one of my favorite shirts was a caricature of him with his baseball card stats on the back.

The "Sandberg Game" remains one of the best regular season games of all time...I was watching with two Cardinal fans who were going absolute bonkers after his HRs.

I know Ernie Banks is known as Mr. Cub, but I would also include Ryne Sandberg. He meant as much to that organization as anyone who ever played for them.

  A sad day for all of Baseball.

What a player.  I tried to copy his batting stance growing up.

 

I played against Bruce Sutters kid in High School.  I went to their house once and the one thing I will never forget is he had a 8 foot grizzly bear stuffed in his living room.  Bruce was a big game hunter.
