was when he stole the base to break Lou Brock's all-time record, they stopped the game, brought Lou Brock out on the field to congratulate him. Rickey took the mic and said something to the effect of "this just proves that now, I am the greatest of all time!", like Brock wasn't even standing there. Always makes me crack up when I see that clip.

That took a lot of at-bats...If anyone ever gets the chance, listen to Tony Gwynn tell Rickey Henderson locker room stories. He told one on Rome one time, quoting Rickey: "Rickey don't understand why Rickey always losin' a cleat"...

Edit to add: Rome clip, which includes the cleat story....and for spelling of "Rickey"
