		I'm not knocking Stargell's accomplishments- he was a Hall of Famer and definitely deserved the statue in front of PNC Park.

		Willie goes into his outfield and injury troubles and this is where you start to REALLY question things.

		Stargell and Kendall had a ritual in which they'd meet to shake hands before every game, and Stargell would give him a punch.
		It was Kendall who caught the last ceremonial pitch at Three Rivers Stadium, and an ailing Stargell made his last public appearance in Pittsburgh to throw it in what was a symbolic passing of the torch.

		Although he'd had seasons with higher totals, 1979 was his most noteworthy year: At the ripe age of 39, Stargell was captain of The Family, driving the team to a pennant with his bat (.281, 32 HR, 82 RBI) and leadership, awarding "Stargell Stars" to deserving teammates.
		Stargell returned to the Pirates as a coach after the scandal abated, but left with manager Chuck Tanner for the Atlanta Braves organization the following year.

		Merit stickers have never caught on in the NFL, but there's a comparable example from baseball: the Pittsburgh Pirates, who in 1979 began sporting gold merit stars on their caps, doled out by team captain Willie Stargell.
		Stargell used plain store-bought star patches that first season, then designed special "Stargell Stars," with an S in the center, for 1980.
		I still have mine." All of which shows that it's the bighearted Stargell himself who deserved the biggest star of all.
