Stanley's Journey comes to an end



It's been a good summer. The cup has been nearby and as far as Slovakia, Finland and Sweden.
It has had babies pictured in the cup, Fruit Loops cereal eaten out of it and been touched not only the hands of near passer byes, but has touched the hearts of many,...including the hearts and souls of many Chicagoans. Many of the 40 something gang (myself included), had never had the experience to see them win. And many of the 50 year olds were too young to know a cup from saucer. Now the cup heads home to Toronto to it's resting place. I don't wish to say "good bye", but rather,... "take care Stanley, we'll see you real soon". Not only does that sound more prophetic, but it ere of return certainty to it. Yes, Stanley will make a return visit to Chicago,... we hope it is quite often with #88 and # 19 still wearing the Indian head sweater.



It was a great summer. I am looking forward to seeing how the team can mesh with their new teammates and to see if they can do it again. Tough task, but, definitely worth watching.
LET'S GO HAWKS !!
