Please, No "Shoeless Joe"

Joe Jackson hated the nickname "Shoeless". He hated it and so do we. We won't refer to "Shoeless" Joe Jackson in these pages, and we hope you will come to disdain the use of this hated nickname too.
We regret to say that we cannot find the reference to this information. We remember reading this, but we don't remember where. If you have one, please email us with the details.
