Rickey Henderson with Dan Abramson

Spend a little time on Rickey Henderson's Baseball Reference page (https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/h/henderi01.shtml) (Plz sponsor us Baseball-Reference!) and you will see that he's one of the best players in baseball history, but you'd also only be getting HALF the story... The very funny and sports savvy comedy man, Dan Abramson, stops by Sports Borts Headquarts to talk about the thrilling, awe-inspiring, and frankly hilarious career of Rickey Henderson. Dan relays some stories, mostly apocryphal, that built the Rickey legend, talks about how Rickey is every baseball kid's dream athlete, and how Rickey was unfairly treated in his own time. Dan also discusses the therapy of his Buffalo Bills fandom and we answer a listener question about SCRIPTED SPORTS TV SHOWS. This episode has it all folks, and I think you should just shut up already and LISTEN! ... If you or anyone you know would like to advertise anything on Sports Borts, simply email [email protected].
