When Mohammed Ali said, "I am the greatest thing that ever lived," I knew he was lying because Willie Mays was the greatest thing that ever lived. One of the highlights of my youth was seeing him play in Candlestick Park against the Houston Astros in the late 1960s. Being from Texas, I cheered for Houston... but I also cheered for Willie Mays.
