Lee Smith is my favorite Cub

(Illinois)
Lee Smith was my favorite Cub of all-time. The closer seemed to epitomize everything a great closer should be. Overpowering fastball and a mean demeanor that made you realize if he had his best stuff, the game was over and the Cubs would win.
He appears to be a longshot for the Hall of Fame, but I certainly hope he gets in.
