The April 1st Chicago Tribune had an article about Billy Williams, one of my all-time favorite Chicago Cubs. The Cubs announced that the Hall of Fame left fielder will have a statue unveiled September 7th outside Wrigley Field.
he will be joining statues of Harry Caray (1999)and Ernie Banks (2008).
Cubs General Manager Jim Hendry said, "He's not only one of the greatest Cubs ever, but one of the greatest influences on Cubs players and Cubs employees." Too bad this couldn't rub off on Mr. Bradley.
He has spent more than 40 years with the Cubs as a player, coach and in management after being the 1961 Rookie of the Year, a six-time All Star.
The statue will be sculpted by Lou Cella, the same one who made the Banks statue.

The difference between north and south.
The nawth has Cream of Wheat. The south has grits.

Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
