Damn Nose, Thanks for that reminder, I'm a die hard Celtic fan,(sorry Mack you probably love the Lakers) Bird was one of my favorites, with Russell, Cowens, Havlicek, Was great to watch as a kid, "Team" ball, mostly forgotten today.
Mack, you had a "great" ballplayer to watch in person, Willie transcended the game, read a book on him when I was a kid, inspiring. Side note:As a kid, I put together a "model" with glue of Willie Mays catch in center field at the fence, 454? feet, famous catch and then throw back ( can't remember ? 1954 World series-Polo grounds vs Cleveland?) oh well, thanks
