    Some pundits called him the greatest rebounder of all time.

    Both. I loved Bill Russell. I didn't like his team but I could appreciate his game. I can rebound as good as Rodman. All you got to do is time the ball. I was also a good shot blocker. The martial arts paid off. Unlike Rodman though, I could nail 3s. I ALWAYS got picked. I always liked George Silas. It's like don't even bring your sh*t down here.

    This FL State - FSGU game is actually the best one I've seen today. They're putting on a show. These guys got game.

    Move up to the NBA and you see some REALLY funky hairstyles.

    If you can rebound like Rodman, I don't want to say you picked the wrong profession...


    but you may have picked the wrong profession.

    I can rebound. All you got to do is time the ball. It's more theft than anything else. You time the ball and snatch it. I'm not tall enough nor can I jump high enough to be a pro. I would have loved to. I could just touch the rim. I CAN rebound and shoot. I played from the 70s until the day I retired in 2000. Almost every day. I've even played in the hanger decks on moving ships in combat boots. My knees are telling me all the f- about it.

    Rodman was a foot shorter than them. They towered over everyone. Centers who stand under the basket and dunk don't impress. That's why I like Hakeem so much. He was so versatile.

    Hakeem was very athletic, but not even in the same level as Wilt or Bill...or even Nate Thornton.
    Wilt was the strongest and most athletic center in the history of the NBA, even better than Kareem.

    Little factoid ... Wilt was a very poor actor. When they made Conan 2 he kept roughing Arnold up. They'd get into the fight scenes and Wilt would actually fight and slam him around.

    Big picture: the world took a turn for the worse when men decided they too want attention for their looks. Now you all make mistakes about as stupid as women make.

    How can you be proud of yourself wearing a bun on your head as a man? Little girls wear them in gradeschool.

    Not the same thing, Abs. Men have always wanted attention. The line is drawn where men want the same attention as girls. I didn't seek attention but sure as Hell didn't turn it away. It was about the competition to me and I'd rather you NOT see me coming. How I looked only mattered in uniform because it matters in uniform.

    These guys are saying "look at me". Sure. Won't be hard to watch your ass either what with that neon billboard on top of your grape.

    Sports Illustrated said he was the strongest professional athlete in the world back in his prime.
    I saw him in person once. He filled the doorway to WVU's Mountaineer Coliseum...
