You know we look up to these BB heroes of ours (and believe me I literally looked
up to Ted, for he stood tall and straight in his 6:4 height).
But, these guys are ordinary people just like you and I....and, Ted loved to talk. I
also met Ted back in 1983 at a signing session at a Show and he was very talkative
with all the autograph seekers.

I found this to be also true with Phil Rizzuto, if you approached guys like Ted and Phil
with down to earth type of conversations, they really opened up to you. And, you soon
realized to keep quiet and let them do the talking.
