Frank Thomas expected to announce his retirement today. Good friend of mine met Frank Thomas years ago at an event in Chicago, asked Frank to sign something. He explained that he was putting a collage together as he had already acquired Michael Jordan & Walter Payton's autographs... not only did Thomas refuse to sign, he was a real jerk about it, gave some line about how he only signed for money and was just an ass in general. Another talented player who it would seem is a total douche.

One of the best players of the 1990's even if his personality did not match.
A truly great athlete for a big guy who could seriously hit.

I wish Big Hurt the best. My college buddy is from Toronto and is a die hard Blue Jays fan. In graphics class he compiled a bunch of Frank Thomas highlights (his career's best highlights) and put them all on dvd. He then presented it to the class it was really good in my opinion.
