‘Simonick is loved by any player that I have spoken with and he said the feeling is mutual, “I don’t know if everybody would be crazy enough like me to work 50 years with one organization, but I’ve had great owners, I’ve had great general managers and the big thing is that I tried to get along with everybody, everybody that puts the uniform on, everybody that worked for the organization, I still try to keep in contract and I have no hard feelings ever.’
