I am a dummy. Can’t find the Brett card story and it seems that the Rizzuto call of the tirade is not available via the link given.
I lived in KC and was active in the local ALS Lou Gehrig’s disease Chapter. It is Brett’s main charity. I rubbed elbows a few times and have several autographed balls, bats and jerseys. He is a gentleman and continues to make KC his home with wife and 3 boys. The most he ever made as a player was about $2 million, a pittance even for a journeyman now!
hmm, it seems the Rizzuto call has been taken down from that site, That’s a shame.
The Brett story is still there at
