Ah, the memories. I have often tried to explain to my political colleagues how important East High b'ball was to me, but they just cannot believe that anything could be more important than winning an election or passing a bill. Wrong! There was simply nothing like giving all your heart and soul to your teammates and school for the sole purpose of winning a high school basketball game. Nothing.
And as for the comments made about me, well, you made me cry. (The last time that happened was 45 years ago when you couldn't quite understand what a great player I was!) Seriously, the all-for-one attitude you helped us to develop has carried thru life, and it has helped make life so much more enjoyable.
Anyway, thanks so much for bringing back so many "wonder year" memories.
Best wishes to all the Knights.
