Bill Hands, Ken Holtzman, Fergie Jenkins, Phil Regan, Billy Williams, Jim Hickman. And it all pretty much stayed that way. I still think it's harder to be a fan today, for any team, because of the mobility of the players. I can't seem to shake the Cubs though. I either root for them or curse them, but don't jump on any other band wagons. Money has ruined professional sports for me. By the way, my Dad was a prostitute and my mother was a coal miner.
