First pic is Ron Santo's statue outside wrigley. One day when I was walking past, some cards fans were draping a st. Louis red jacket over him and taking pics. One of the barkeeps from across the street went over and stopped them. Pretty cool loyalty.

Second pic is a shoe one of the teachers at my training made for Santo. They don't know if he ever actually wore them. Notice the blue stitching to simulate pinstripes.

Wait, when did you go to Chicago?

In terms of Hall of Fame credentials, I don't think Santo really had a leg to stand on.

there are also folks complaining about the lack of Bobby Grich, Dwight Evans, and Willie Randolph.

I just wiped my ass then smelled the toilet paper.  What's wrong with me?

the dude either has some high float or a mess between the cheeks.

Santo and Scott Rolen have had similar careers.

Does Scott Rolen have diabetes?

Did Rolen play in the biggest pitcher's era since the end of the dead ball?

 Rolen is putting together a case for HOF, especially at 3B.

Indeed.  Fuck the HOF.

Actually, the HOF is pretty fucking awesome.  And Cooperstown and the surrounding area is quite beautiful, especially during the fall foliage time.  Quite an enjoyable time and I recommend it to everyone.

Sounds like you want to fuck it, meaning Brookens was right.

Oh, ok.  I thought he meant "Fuck the HOF" in a negative way.  I'm all for sticking my dick in the HOF (hassel and baseball).

I think he is kind of a victim of his era. Dude is a player.
