Greg Maddux

I'm a big baseball fan, and I'm also very much a fan of people who humbly excel at their craft. That's why I've always liked Greg Maddux, even though he's never played on a team which I was following.

I think this article captures the essence of Maddux and even non-sports fans might appreciate this well-written piece about what he was all about. He will be missed, as he just announced his retirement.

As a huge Cubs fan who was sad to see him leave (for a second time) just a couple of years ago, this is a sad day. Although, I'm glad he's leaving when he's still good and hope he doesn't come back several times (ahem Clemens). Baseball was better because of him. He had a great career!
