Give Bill Russell A Statue!

This seems like a great idea to me.

Give Bill Russell a Damn Statue! - Boston Magazine

In Boston, we now have statues of three sports figures — Orr, Red Auerbach, and Ted Williams — sprinkled throughout the city. (Williams, oddly, also has a tunnel named after him.) That’s quite a list, actually. But there’s one glaring omission: the one sports star — no disrespect here to Teddy Ballgame or Tom Brady — who left a bigger mark on this city than any other. I’m talking about a guy who won 11 championships in 13 seasons. Whose name has become synonymous with victory, hard work, and shared sacrifice. I’m talking about Bill Russell.

I recommend reading the whole article.  It is well done (as usual by Paul Flannery) and it even sounds like it could happen.  The Celtics are open to the idea and the mayor's office would be supportive as well.
