Just curious, with all this talk of Statues for the living - how do you feel about the statue that was put up in your honor in front of bubbas?

Not to mention, Michael Jordan and Cubs great, Ryan Sandberg. Go Bulls, Go Cubs.

The great Red Auerbach is loving this series. Go Celtics!

Seventeen championships!

Plans are in the works for Cousey and Russell also. I think they are both alive as of this writing.
