Just a casual aside...but did any of you read the articles by Stark on ESPN about the Most Valuable Players of the decade? No Cubs, of course, made the list, but Stark also had a list for top 10 <i>Least</i> Valuable Players of the decade.
And of course, 3 of Hendry's fellas made the list:
1. Juan Gone
2. Carl Everett
3. Raul Mondesi
<!--coloro:#0000FF--><!--/coloro-->4. Corey Patterson<!--colorc-->
<!--/colorc-->
5. Carl Pavano
6. Kenji Johjima
<!--coloro:#0000FF--><!--/coloro-->7. Milton Bradley<!--colorc-->
<!--/colorc-->
8. Pat Burrell
9. Sidney Ponson
<!--coloro:#0000FF--><!--/coloro-->10. Neifi Perez<!--colorc-->
<!--/colorc-->
Again, this doesn't prove anything at all. I just found it interesting.

There's nothing better than to realize that the good things about youth don't end with youth itself. It's a matter of realizing that life can be renewed every day you get out of bed without baggage. It's tough to get there, but it's better than the dark thoughts. -Lance
