Tom Ricketts said this was a tribute to the man....my question is why didnt ricketts/cubs do this when Santo was alive

No disrespect but what good is a statue to a man when he is dead and cant enjoy it himself?

Ron santo at least deserved to see that statue and enjoy it before his death....Ricketts is a joke

Joking aside..

Will be a great day on the Northside!

i hope he is getting honored for his career numbers not his announcing. if he gets a statue for announcing, might as well but up a statue of chip caray as well.

Agreed but Ricketts owned the team for a year before Ron passed away :shrug:

Actually, the Banks statue was put up before Ricketts owned the team I believe.

ok you are correct sir...

Banks statue was dedicated in 2008(pre ricketts)...while williams statue was dedicated in 2010
