Barry, LONG before Michael Jordan came to Chicago in 1984/with the Bulls...it was Sandberg who made that #23 popular here in Chicago.

I still love this guy. Long story but I met him in the 80's. He signed with the Cubs and I have been a fan since. I owe so much to him and how he enriched my life. Thank you, Ryno

My favorite player when I was a kid in the 80's and 90's. I wanted to be a second baseman just like him.

My dad said he broke furniture after the Cubs lost the '84 series against the Padres. I wound up basically doing the same in '03 haha (my dad had died by that point). Those two seasons (and '69) were heart breakers!
