The Interview

Bud Selig

MLB COMMISSIONER

The former Brewers owner, now in his 19th season as commissioner, was honored with a statue at Miller Park on Aug. 24

Dan Patrick: Did you have approval on the statue?

Bud Selig: As the sculptor worked, he did send me pictures from time to time. So that approval I had.

DP: There was no truth to the rumor that it was going to look like the statue of David?

BS: No, it worked out great. It was a day I'll never forget.

DP: What were your thoughts when you found out they wanted to put up the statue?

BS: I must confess that the last three weeks, my daughter Wendy said that she had never quite seen me like that. Usually, Dan, I stay focused, worry about what the day's events are. But I must admit, this brought back 50 years of memories.
