Coming in Wednesday's Longview News-Journal will be a tribute column to George Kenneth Griffey, Jr.
Junior hit his 600th career home run earlier tonight against Florida. The shot makes him the sixth player in Major League Baseball history to reach the 600-homer plateau.
For the longest time, I despised Griffey. My column chronicles why I disliked him so much for so long, and why I no longer harbor feelings of ill will toward him.
Be sure to check it out at www.new-journal.com.

I have to admit I wasn't the biggest Jr. Griffey fan back in the day either... However, I have come around of late and really admire the sweet-swinging baller. I'm waiting on that column.
