People and records, gone but not forgotten

Now that you know about Derek Jeter and various all-time base hits records for different franchises, go read Steve Goldman’s tribute to Lou Gehrig and what it means to leave behind a legacy. Bring some tissues if you’re the crying type, as this is a very moving story.

    I also recommend reading Olbermann’s writings about Gehrig, both post-Jeter and post-Ripkin (summarized in the Sportscenter book he wrote with Patrick).

    Throws some serious perspective on Gehrig’s accomplishments.
