Tim's idea is so exquisitely appropriate, I get goose bumps thinking
about having Mickey Vernon, Frank Howard and Ryan Zimmerman all
together, helping us all commemorate RFK. I have all respect in the
world for Harmon Killebrew, but he's in the Hall as a Twin, and Mickey
goes back to '39 with the Nats. There can be no argument about Hondo.
And what we all see in Ryan Zimmerman is breathtaking. Let's just hope
that the building schedule keeps on track. It's no certainty as of now
when the game at RFK will be .
