I think we all should be more realistic. Willie never stood on the shoulders of others...they were HIS shoulders...and everyone you see on color TV these days stands on his shoulders...and Hank's & and Ernie's and of course Jackie's. Willie never made a million...not even close. Our sports 'heroes' are just like anyone else, entitled to having a bad day. Walk a mile in their shoes and try to understand.
