I remember staying up to watch the replays of the games that were on the weekdays because the NBA in those days wasn't overly popular. My heroes were Dennis Johnson, Gus Williams, and Freddie Brown. I had the privilege to meet many of them the season following their World Championship in 1979 in Spokane,WA in an Exhibition game against Bill Walton and the San Diego Clippers. The Seattle Supersonics have always been my team. I was born in Seattle, but adopted as a child. Thank you for sharing your memories of such a great man. The "Human Eraser" was an amazing man who passed way too early in life.Ben Andersonhttp://www.facebook.com/teacherbenandersonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5723638612315885075.post-86890959472693877062013-03-08T22:03:04.989-08:002013-03-08T22:03:04.989-08:00Always has to be one negative person missing the w...Always has to be one negative person missing the whole root point of the article.

You were brave! You also know how to pick 'em well, appreciating Marvin. As you said, he was truly a gentle giant....and knowing him the way I did, that wink he sent your way probably had more thought and intended purpose than you'll ever realize. Marv knew and respected the responsibility he carried with him when it came to how young people looked up to him.

When I read the NY Times obituary at the time of his death it brought back a flood of memories, as he was a hero of mine as well that great Sonics season of 77-78. I was then an eight year old growing up in Phoenix, Arizona and fan of the Sonics and the gentle giant who led them. When I found out we shard a birthday I was really excited. When he was traded to the Knicks, and they were visting Phoenix, I would come to the Suns game early and remember a kind wink from him. I will never forget him and thanks to your tribute will treasure my own childhood memories of the man. I now live in Glasgow, Scotland half a world away but my childhood image of the Gentle Giant persists.Alex Benchimolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17399758545789806396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5723638612315885075.post-44122999993913592302011-12-14T14:07:30.140-08:002011-12-14T14:07:30.140-08:00anonymous, if u worry abt being healthy all the ti...anonymous, if u worry abt being healthy all the time, wen the heck do u enjoy the pleasures of life?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5723638612315885075.post-9716921851017004492011-10-04T09:12:08.136-07:002011-10-04T09:12:08.136-07:00Since nutella contains milk, it shouldn't be s...Since nutella contains milk, it shouldn't be stored at room temperature..

There's an outbreak of this in Sweden right now, and they suspect cucumbers. As far as regular E.Coli there was an oubreak attributed to organic unpasteurized apple juice (because of deer feces) <br /> Now the meat factories? They should do a much better job, I agree. But that poor baby Kevin wouldn't have contracted that if his hamburger had been cooked properly. It's so very sad; when reading about kids dying from either hamburger cooked on the grill at home or a stupid fast food restaurant. <br />After hearing about that, I was so scared I didn't even want my son to eat a cook out burger XD XD I would cook his in a skillet till DONE. He was worth it, of course.<br /><br />This EHE.coli strain can be passed from person to person as well, it's contagious (so I read) and whereas regular E.Coli takes over a million CFU of bacterium to infect someone; the crazy EHEC only takes 10-100 CFU! so it's much easier to get infected.Bunny Olenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5723638612315885075.post-61971406736125724982011-02-22T21:13:39.380-08:002011-02-22T21:13:39.380-08:00Nutella is 50% sugar and isn't really healthy....Nutella is 50% sugar and isn't really healthy.. doesn't it have genetically modified palm oil in it as well?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5723638612315885075.post-36729734570869729752010-12-02T02:20:21.284-08:002010-12-02T02:20:21.284-08:00Paul - You're the best!
