Like Doug Loudenback, I am in love with history. I'm always wanting to know the story behind the story.

After a dozen years of reporting on Jim Brewer, I've done the one story in today's Oklahoman that I doubt anyone has ever done - the story of Brewer himself. With his time in Bricktown drawing to a close, it's appropriate to consider what he did and did not accomplish, his overall footprint on Bricktown, and just who he really is.

He has no streets or plazas named after him, no plaques, no sculpture ... so the question is, what is Brewer's legacy and what, if anything, should be said or done to make note of it?
