Damn well told. For me, the issue was decided when Hank Aaron sent in the video congratulations. When one of the most erudite and classy individuals to ever play the game is big enough to pass the torch like that - yeah, that's made of win.
I'm not entirely certain I agree with classy, tbh. As I noted elsewhere, while I can completely understand not wanting to traipse around the country at the pace of a pro ball team at his age, he was less than tactful in the way he originally discussed the issue. The fact that he did record the video surprised me, in the light of those previous remarks, but it was a very pleasant surprise.
