Buck O’Neil was a legendary baseball man and storyteller through eight decades in the game. He helped create the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City in 1990 and kept the history of Black baseball alive into the 21st century.
O’Neil was a 3-time All-Star with the Kansas City Monarchs in the 1940’s. Later as a scout for the Chicago Cubs, he signed more than a dozen Major Leaguers including future Hall of Famers Lou Brock and Lee Smith.
O’Neil proudly spoke at the Cooperstown induction ceremonies of 17 Negro League legends in 2006 and was elected to the Hall of Fame himself in 2022.
O’Neil’s plaque reads in part, “Character, integrity and dignity defined a life dedicated to baseball.” #BlackHistoryMonth

You can steal the statue but you can’t steal the spirit of what the statue represents! Disheartening end to the stolen Jackie Robinson statue has generated a Robinson-like resolve from the public for good to overcome evil! @MLB@Royals@NLBMuseumKC RT

The Kansas City Chiefs -- yes, the same team you certainly watched to the tune of tremendous heartbreak at some point in your youth, regardless of your age -- are going to their FOURTH Super Bowl in FIVE years. I can't believe it. It doesn't seem real.
Absolutely heartbroken for my friends at League 42 in Wichita after the heinous destruction & theft of their beautiful Jackie Robinson statue that welcomed kids and fans to the baseball complex! I was in Wichita to support a fundraising event for League 42 in April 2022! @KSNNews

Jason Bean of @KU_Football is the first FBS QB to throw for 425+ yards and 6+ TDs in his final collegiate game since Texas Tech's Patrick Mahomes did so against Baylor on November 25, 2016.
Ever wondered how a #NFL team preserves its history?
