    Stan the Man is still alive. Someday I really think the answer to this question will be Albert Pujols but for now, it's Mr. Musial.

    He's arguably the greatest National League hitter of all-time. A .331 career average, over 3600 hits and 475 home runs. 20-time All-Star, 3-time MVP, and 3-time World Series champion for the team of the '40s Cardinals ('42, '44 and '46).

    He's such a presence still in the Cardinals organization as well. He tries to make it to Opening Days still and salutes the crowd with his "air swing". The Cards definitely treat their heroes, past and present, right. There's a street named after him in St. Louis as well as the biggest statue at the stadium. There is a group of statues of the Hall of Famers from Ozzie to Gibby but Stan stands alone at one of the gates. He's as special of a player that the game will ever see.

    Stan Musial win always be considered the greatest Cardinal of all time whether it's today or 1000 years from now. The only one who would come close is Bob Gibson.

    Acceptance Speech: Aww man, TLC why do you gotta make me come out here? Damn you know how much i suck at these things, but anyways, the honor is for me, to be inducted by one of the people that actually introduced these types of competition. To be inducted by YWWA's next World Champion,The man right here aced all my career in just a few words, proves how much he actually worked to induct me,so everyone give our man TLC a big applause *Fans applause*. Look TLC, in this business when i left, even though we didn't always agree, in fact we had alot of matches to prove who was better, ok my point is.. When i left, you were the only actual friend i had backstage, or if you don't want to call it frienship, you could call it respect. So honestly, if someone was going to induct me from the YWWA Roster, you had to be the one,i wouldn't accept no one else's offer. Even though i wasn't sure if you would have accepted to induct me it was worth a try. Look unlike me, YOUR LEGACY STILL CONTINUES, so make it the best damn legacy ever made, look now that i'm gone,now that my partner Alex is gone. For now, This World Belongs to You..Without a doubt. Thanks alot dawg. Promo after speech: Well this parking lot sure looks different,alot of good new cars now. *Approaches a car* Damn, who bought this new 2010 Corvette? Oh i get it, it has a logo of Siberia on the Seat, now i know who owns it,*Grabs a crowbar and starts breaking the car's windows* No wait,this is SW's car right? I thought it was Justin's car. My bad. aww man. *Approaches another car* Hehe, another 2010 Ford Mustang,exactly the same car,gives me memories, *Breaks the window with the crowbar,gets inside of the car and speeds out as fast as he can.* --------The End------------ OOC: I was bored so i had to destroy cars
