In that instance it is not an attempt to curry political favor with anyone, and the real honor comes to the rest of us by just being able to recognize a person who has done so much for his or her country.
    What about celebrities like Pete Rose and Mark McGwire, who both have streets named after them? Do you think either Cincinnati or St. Louis (the cities, not the fans) now wish they hadn't named those streets after those guys?
    My dad got to enjoy 3 Reds World Championships by the time he was my age. So far, I've only gotten to enjoy one. Step it up Redlegs!

    There's always the risk that when you name something after a person who is still alive, that person may later go out and sully his or her name.

    Think of the irony if P & G decided to put an office on Pete Rose Way.
