Shane Victorino may have driven some of us crazy time to time with his play, but the man is a true class act. He took out this full-page ad in tomorrow's Philadelphia Daily News. I'm shocked he got this out so fast.
Bob Ventrone, Jr. shared the picture on his Facebook page that I noticed thanks to Phillies Beat Writer Kevin Cooney on Twitter.
Speaking of Twitter, Shane also had many nice things to say on his Twitter account:
I'm sure we haven't seen the last of him in Philadelphia, though we may have as a player. If Mike Lieberthal made the Phillies Wall of Fame, there is surely a place for Shane. He is and always will be a Phillies World Series Champion.
No Shane...WE THANK YOU!!
