As a life long basketball fan - I had the utmost repect for John Wooden. We need more coaches in all sports who place more emphasis on character than winning at any cost.
Sail on Coach Wooden. You were the last of your kind.

Re: Sign in if your done with BP forever!
OK - I Am done with BP. Not only will I not do business at their stores - I sold $ 20,000 of stock at a huge loss this week. So I am voting with my wallet whether it affects BP or not. I do have a conscience!

You mean like every other real sport - except tennis. I think they make an exception for Tiger - hope he has thick skin.sonofabeach wrote:Finally golf is interesting. Hopefully they'll probably allow heckling now.

Re: ***GOLFER TIGER WOODS SERIOUSLY INJURED IN CAR CRASH***
I think that the discussion about this has been lively here because the recent revelations about Tiger Woods' infidelities are at odds with what most people liked to believe about him. Although he hasn't addressed these revelations in detail, he has offered up a blanket apology about his failings a...

Re: I can't believe it hasn't been mentioned - 46 years ago
Yep - I just looked at the calendar and saw it was Nov.22 and I have heard no mention of this awful date in history. I know I'll never forget getting off the school bus as a 13 year old and my mother telling me the news from Dallas. Hard to believe it will be 50 years in another 4 years.
