    Prouder than ever on this day to be a Dodger fan...the team who signed Jackie Robinson, the bravest man ever to play the game.
    His courage and sheer will changed America forever, and started what we will eventually achieve as a people.
    I hope every player out there today knows why they are wearing number 42, and what he sacrificed as a man.
    Thank you Robbie.
    and thank you Mr. Rickey, for your courage and sight...

    Without question the most important player in the history of this sport, and one of the most important people in the history of this country.

    Although 42 was sappy and corny as shit sometimes, I'm glad it exists so a new generation can always remember his story.
