Dan L.;

We follow almost the same identical path. I can remember the Lakers
with West, Goodrich, Baylor, Chamberlain, and the rest of them very
well when I lived in Riverside. I too was living in the D.C. area
when the Bullets had just moved from Baltimore to Washington. I was
at the very first NBA and NHL game at the Capitol Centre (I
eventually worked there too). I came back here on the west coast
before they switched to being the Wizards.

BTW, I assume you agree that Kobe Bryant is very, very innocent?

Best regards,
Scott
