It's a shame that Sanders was such a class act. If he was like any of these prima donnas today he would have held out, demanded a trade or something to go to another team. That wasn't his style though, as noted by his demeanor on the field. Too bad none of the players of today learned from his example.

Was going to post the same damn thing. QFT.

It's probably for the best he retired early really. Better that than him being a stiff half-corpse mummy-man like most players when they hit age 45.
