On Chicago: Sunday's Child
January 30, 2009
For Chicago I have nothing but the dearest love. It was the place of my birth into the kingdom of God - where I signed up with Jesus Christ as my manager for life. It was where I got into the biggest league of them all, the league where I will fight with the last drop of my blood until the great umpire says, "Bill, you're out!"
