We Have a Wiener!!!

YOO HOO!!
The Lakers win and so do I.....

I'm the big winner this week......
due to the fact that no one could put the ball through the hoop.

Ferdinand Lewis "Lew" Alcindor, Jr. was the answer
and although some were close....
there were no slam-dunks this week!
(Kareem Abdul-Jabbar....
even spelled correctly would not help this week)

Speaking of dunks.....
Dunks were banned in College Basketball for a time back in 1967 due to Mr. Goggles.

Speaking of Goggles....
He started to wear goggles due to one of his corneas being scratched during a game.

The Harlem Globetrotters offered him $1 million to come
play with them before heading into the NBA.

He spent some time with the Milwaukee Bucks before heading to the LA Lakers.

My favorite movie...."Airplane"

Currently fighting a rare strain of Leukemia.....smokes pot to quell his headaches.


Studied Martial Arts under Bruce Lee.

Better luck next week!!
