Here's Frank Thomas's Emotional HOF Induction Speech
On the other end of the Hall-of-Fame-Speech spectrum, Frank Thomas gave a pretty touching speech today at the Hall of Fame and spent almost the entire time either crying or fighting off the tears. He spoke fondly of his parents and family and got very emotional when speaking about his father (which he was worried about it).
If you can make it past "Thanks for pushing me and always preaching to me, 'You could be someone special, if you really work at it.' I took that heart, pops, and look at us today," without even a sniffle, you are a stone-cold cyborg.
He also went on to shout out almost everyone he ever played with or for. Here is the whole speech:
