Re: sports century on oscar

I saw Walt Wesley school Bill Russell one night at the Cincinnati Gardens.

Norm Van Lier was in the movie Barbershop.

Connie Dierking drives past my house on a regular basis.

How about Jeff Conine? He was once a teammate of Willie and George. Yep, he's that old, kids.

The last name is spelled Wiesenhahn.

I should know, it's mine, too.

Bob is my father's first cousin. Saw him at dad's funeral 3 years ago. It was one of those odd meetings where he was offering his sympathy and I tried to tell him that if I had a dollar for everytime I was asked if he was my relative, I wouldn't have to work for a living.

Even Marty Brennaman and Bill Cunningham both asked me.

Anyhoo, very strange seeing my odd last name on the site.
