Black Friday

Yes , the cubs were the longest wait , but not as painful as the RedSox who came so close so many times , only to have epic failure at the end !

But you guys still had the Bruins, the Celtics, and the Patriots. Until the Cavs this year, we hadn't had a championship since the Browns in 64.

You mean the Ravens. This team never won anything.

Pistol Pete Maravich?

Imagine how many points he would have scored if they had the 3 pointer then.

I drive by the old Braves Field everyday , the original ticket office still there , it's now owned by B U. The office is campus police and BU plays there games on the redone field
Some of the Braves grandstands still in the right field

Pistol Pete Maravich?

John Stockton and Carl Malone!!

Pistol Pete Maravich?

Hell of a shooter

 

[Covemastah]

Probably one of the top five greatest college players all tine

I will always think of him as New Orleans Jazz (not Utah) Not for Atlanta or Boston or any other team he might have played for either.

 

[Covemastah]

John Havlicek one of the greatest outside shooters also would have racked up a lot of threes

 

[Covemastah]

Yes , came to Celts at end , only a shadow of himself

He could shoot but he was quick and could also play defense. The coach at my HS was a good college player and tried out for pros and Havlicek ran rings around him.

When my wife worked for the city she was part of the team that designed the refurbishing of old League Park. She got me a ceramic roof tile from the old ticket booth.
