"Champ Osteen was the hero of the textile league and the idol of young Joe Jackson. He was the role model that Joe Jackson would pattern himself after. Champ batted left- handed, threw right-handed, ran swift as a gazelle and hit the ball hard and far. Joe was fascinated. He studied and copied every move Champ made on the field. In 1903 Champ Osteen , Joe Jackson Idol, became Joe’s Manager of the Brandon Braves the rest is history." - Author Joe Thompson in Growing Up With Shoeless Joe (12/30/1997)
