PIHoF Inductee: Cows

Back when Inky was playing for the Texas Rangers, we always enjoyed watching Inky run. He was a large man and wasn't known for speed (he averaged a stolen base about every 39 games/128 at bats), largely because he wasn't that speedy. In fact, we always felt like he ran in a way that resembled the source of the cheeseburgers that were probably a staple of his diet.
That's right, a cow. Hell, to this day when I see a picture of him in my head, thundering down the basepath, I hear a little cowbell clinking along. Sure it makes no sense... but neither does Inky's magical career.

Maybe I'm crazy... here, compare these pictures:
Moooooooooove!
So congrats to cows everywhere for being not only the role model for the GBPE's running style, but also the primary source of his fuel!
