Thanks SO much dick, Really appreciate that!
I'm 67 and the husband's 69, so I know exactly what you mean by "watching the greats who put BB on the map. Man! I loved watching all those guys you listed play. Whenever Philly played, I'd always tell the husband, "I'd leave you in a heartbeat for Dr. J.!"π
And I agree with you, though Ali got most of the attention over time, those men, along with John Carlos and Tommie Smith at the 1968 Olympics, played huge roles in the changes that came out of the Civil Rights Movement.
Yep, America pretty much sucks for me too right now. Once he got elected, tRump unleashed the hounds and sadly, I don't think it's gonna get better before it gets much worse.
Appreciate you reading and commenting, I always enjoy our talks!
