I say yes. Perhaps I am a little biased, however. A couple of years ago, I was a little tipsy and was at the Palms playing blackjack at about 2 a.m. on a Thursday. Who walks up to my table? Frank Thomas. After all of the bullshit I had heard about him in the media, I was expecting a total dick. Believe it or not, he turned out to be the nicest guy ever. We talked about all kinds of stuff, family, friends, chicago, the media, etc. etc. We ended up hanging out the next night and having a few more cervezas. It blew my mind how soft spoken and classy this guy really is. Literally, one of the nicest athletes/celebs I have ever met.
