Brilliant!!!
Billy Williams riding Ron Santo on all fours (well twos)
A big riding crop and a firm crack on the ass.
Maybe make it animatronic with the riding crop constantly wacking his ass.
Throw in some leather and you'll have the halsted crowd happy as well.

I kind of knew that line would inspire some heckling.

I didn't make up that there will be some upset. One of my friends who I told the news thought Santo should have had one first, I tried reasoning with her, she would have none of it

I was going to respond but I didn't know what to say. I was at a loss. It really is unbelievable.

Clearly the racist Cubs fans wanted santo to have the statue first. In fact, there's a huge push for Addison to be changed to Anson, in honour of the greatest racist to ever wear a Cubs uniform. At least that's what my cousin's girlfriend told me.

I remember the dude. I think he went by the handle "GiveRonABronzer."

My two-year-old daughter keeps insisting that Augie Ojeda should have a statue erected before Williams, no matter how hard I try to beat the idea out of her. Her tantrums and refusals to eat her Gerber until "Unca Augie gets his tatchoo" have caused quite a stir in the broadsheets nationwide.

Well, that's not gonna be good enough evidence. What does your dog think? Well, you seem more like a parakeet kind of guy. Ask him and then report back to us.
