Bill,

What your mom said back in the day reminded me of a Frank quote. A fellow at work dabbled in cartoon type drawings and did a couple drawings for me since he knew I was a Brooks fan (he always pictures himself; the one in the Browns shirt...poor fella). In the drawing he used the quote, "I don't see why you reporters keep confusing Brooks and me. Can't you see that we wear different numbers."
