Pictures
This picture is from the Cubs Home Opener 4-12-2010. This is Mr. Ricketts, the new owner of the Cubs. It was his first home opener as the new owner. We are standing on the field in front of first base. You can see the press box behind us. It doesn't get any better than meeting Mr. Ricketts on the field before the game.
One of the greatest sluggers. Ernie "Mr. Cub" Banks.
This is a picture of New York Yankee HOF star pitcher Whitey Ford. Over the years, I have met many athletes, but Mr. Ford was a true gentleman. We talked about his kids' and Grandchildren. He even let me try on his HOF induction ring from 1974. Mr. Ford is top of the class.

Walter Payton was one of the first professional athletes that I met. What a nice and funny guy. Very personable and intriguing. Mr. Payton signed a football for me that day. This picture was taken in the mid 1990's when I was just a teenager.
