his ego is to big.. no way

 

And he is dumb as hell

 

Here a story about him, he never remembers anyones name he has played with So in 2000 while on The MEts, he asks John Olerud why he wears a batting helmet in the field, Olerud tells him why

Rickeys responds

 

You know we had a guy in Toronto that does the same thing...

This is more of a correction than a submission. The story about Rickey Henderson asking John Olerud why he wears a batting helmet (included in the Olerud bio, but not Henderson's) never happened. It started as a joke and was spread mainly by a Toronto writer. It has been denied by both players and debunked by several sportswriters. There are enough real Rickey stories out there. This is one of the better ones but it is simply not true.
