    Alfonze24, I like your tag line "The man who does not read has no advantage over the man who cannot read."....... very good,..... Think about this, " Would you rather be a slave who can read or a free man who cannot read?".........I know what I would pick.......think about it.....i.e.......who had the advantage now?

    I can't actually find anything on google regarding this nickname for him I vividly recall watching hundreds of Braves games growing up during that time with announcers Skip Cary and Pete Van Wieren using this nickname for him during telecasts.
