Gone, but forever remaining....

Was Harmon Killebrew the inspiration for the MLB logo?

I couldn't care less about Commissar Selig's dumb logo, which he now makes all teams in his domain wear on caps, helmets, jerseys, pants, socks, etc., etc. It's all over the ballparks, including scoreboards and advertising signs, even on the bases. Enough already. And he probably stole the idea for the silhouette style of the logo from the NBA.

As for Harmon Killebrew, I'll agree he was a very nice guy. As a ballplayer, he was exceptional at one aspect of the game only: hitting home runs. His lifetime batting average was a mediocre .256, he was an average third baseman, and he was slow on the basepaths.

I feel bad that he passed away, but let's be honest about his baseball legacy.

When I was a kid, his name was one on the tip of my tongue...a real, honest to goodness slugger...;

RIP GOOD MAN, YOUR TRIALS ARE OVER!
