Rickey Henderson

Playing professional baseball is great work - if you can get it. And, Henderson's still got it. The 46-year-old former major leaguer is still going strong, playing in the minors for the San Diego Surf Dawgs.


Part of me wants to say that he doesn't know when to let go and should retire. But, wouldn't it be great if he hung around until age 50? It would be comical to see the old man still trotting around the bases and snatch-catching balls in the outfield. I'd hate to be the catcher who couldn't throw out a 50-year-old man trying to steal second base.
