It goes back to 1946, when I would be able to get the games on the radio out of Chicago, when there were clear channel stations, and they'd boost their wattage to reach out. It started because of my Uncle, who was a Sox fan, and would listen to their games while sitting in his living room, on a large floor model radio. In 1952, he went to Chicago, on a job, and was gone all summer. When he came back home, he told me he had gone to quite a few games, and brought me something. It was one of the gloves that Nellie Fox used during that season, complete with his autograph, and with a shout out to me directly. I was the envy of every kid in town.I cherished that glove, and in 1978, our home was robbed, and the glove stolen. I have no idea what it was worth, but I would have never sold it.Also a Blackhawks fans. Goes real well with being a Packers, Bucks, White Sox, and Blackhawk fan.</blockquote>
