Really pi$$ed me off at a card show in Atlantic City about 10 years ago . Had a Sports Illustrated with him and Carew on the cover . He signed his name over Carew .. Now I have to have Carew someday sign his name over Williams ...
Really was a grumby old man, even in front of my 12 year old son I took to the show .

Hey, Idiot. Williams was far from a perfect man, but I have to respond to your thoughtless anectdote. I took a look at the cover you talked about on cnnsi.com. The only place Williams could sign an autograph was on Carew's uniform. The cover was a blue background and Williams was wearing dark clothing. If he had signed anywhere else, you would not be able to read his autograph.

I'm so tired of people forgiving how rotten a man this guy was. When he was younger, he was mean and arrogant. Apparently he lightened up over the years, but believe me, I know. He son now holds that mantle.
