That's the best quote from an athlete I've seen in a long while.

Bruce also said, in an interview discussing Griffey's homerun prowess, "There's only one Ken Griffey." That quote is almost as awesome.

If you could continue both Charboneau and Plantier on from their rookie seasons based on the season and potential, they'd both be monsters.

Except that Ken Griffey Sr. might argue the premise.

From Bruce is Loose: Reds rookie unleashes fast start on NL foes - Jon Heyman - SI.com:

Quote:
Griffey paid Bruce ultimate compliment, saying then that he thought he was looking at a young version of him. But Bruce disagreed, "There's only one Ken Griffey,'' he said.
There's another article that adds the "Jr." to the end of his quote, but it's much better without.

Of course the Red's manager and other burned out prospects and have nothing to do with Jay Bruce being awesome. I just thought the one quote was cool.
