Comment: Cosign Coco...I'm very happy to hear 'bout this documentary...I've been a long time fan of the Negro leauges and it's players...I was rocking the gear before it was fashionable...It still %*$!es me off that Buck O'neil didn't get in the HOF and that there are no former teams in the majors...Monarchs, Grays, Crawfords woulda been nice in todays leauge...He11, when the ABA folded some of those team were allowed in the NBA...The owners didn't even get compensated for the theft of the star players...They coulda taken one dayum team....Louis has the right voice for this...I betcha he does some fiddler-speak...

Comment: I got my SI issue yesterday in the mail and those Negro League paintings were great. I plan on putting this issue away in my archieves. I still thnik that Mr. O'Neil should've made the Hall of Fame but his speech two years ago was beautiful and he deserves all the props in the world for keeping the spirit of the Negro Leagues alive.
