I’m not a huge fan myself, and I know there’s not a bunch of basketball guys on here, but I can’t believe I haven’t seen any mention of the passing of the great Bill Russel! RIP

I am not a sports fan.
I only like watching rodeo, and Softball College World Series. And the softball is just because my daughter also plays softball.

Bill played in the 50s and 60s. I do not think he would align with the current pre madonna's that fill the current role.

I am a huge fan and coached college and high school for 13 years, but I gave up on it. The NBA sucks and college isn't far behind. The only ball I watch much anymore are my two boys.

Loved going to watch the Sperms. One of the best things I did was give up those tickets.

I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

High school two-a-days started this week so this is now football season. Plus, I hate basketball at all levels. It's as much fun as watching golf.
RIP Bill Russel. He was greatness on and off the court.

Yes - he was great back when basketball was great. My son-in-law's grandfather played with Russell and also is in the Hall of Fame. In the offseason he traveled around selling shoes for Converse. No prima donnas in that day/time. Here's Bailey's thoughts on Russell: https://mississippitoday.org/2022/0...sell-the-best-who-ever-stepped-on-court/
