Solomon Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 What a sad day for baseball. Even if you weren't a Twins fan. you had to like him. Another example of how we aren't promised another day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotmilk? Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 It's crazy, it seems like yesterday I was mad at Kirby for the way he snatched the 91 WS away from the Braves and that was almost 15 years ago! Kirby was a great player and always had a smile on his face and the baseball world will miss him dearly!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerry Bertier Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 (edited) Kirby was a great player on the field, and gave it is all while between the lines. However, I never saw him as a role model due to his off the field issues. Collen Cowherd had a great segment about this yesterday on ESPN radio.

Solomon Posted March 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 (edited) Kirby was a great player on the field, and gave it is all while between the lines. However, I never saw him as a role model due to his off the field issues. Kevin Cowherd had a great segment about this yesterday on ESPN radio. Collin Cowherd. Par for the course. Did he talk about gambling on how long it would take him to die once the stroke happened? Edited March 8, 2006 by Solomon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coach15 Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Kirby was a great player and human being, it killed me in when he brought the Twins back in Game 6 of the World Series versus the Braves, but it was ok later because he was a classy guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
