We were in the same class in 6th grade (Reading, PA) before she moved to nashville. I actually talked to her on the phone a few months ago. She wasn't hot at all when she left my middle school, I wish I would have been a lot nicer.  |

If one conducts himself in an arrogant manner and refuses autograpphs to young kids, then they certainly should expect their homes to be sprayed nightly with obscene words.
darn him and the horse he rode in on. |

#13 Posted: 2/24/2012 8:32:07 PM Non athletes: Bob Dole (Sen), Tim Curry (Actor), Phil Gramm (Sen), Huey Lewis (Musician), Martin Downey Jr (talk show host)
I have met numerous athletes, former and current, over the years: Kordell Stewart (went to middle school and high school with him) Shaq (while he was at LSU) All of the Mannings except Eli (I grew up in New Orleans and have talked to and seen the Mannings many times except for Eli.)
These are off the top of my head. The only one I know, or knew personally was Kordell. The other ones I may have shaken their hand or had a 10 sec conversation with. |

He lives up here & I've heard the same thing from numerous people.........haven't met him personally though.
Speaking of BB greats..........just met Spencer Haywood a couple of months ago in Vegas........great guy.....couldn't have been nicer to some old Sonics fans.........BS'd with us for about 1/2 hr before teeing off.
Lenny Wilkins is a good guy but his wife is a nag.......
Shawn Kemp is cool........
Larry King..........Arnold Palmer.........Tom Seaver (when I was very young)........Pat Travers..........Kevin Calabro...........all very nice people.

I played in a golf tournament in Atlanta and he was entered in the tourney as a celebrity guest. There was a banquet dinner for all the players and sponsors one of the nights and I sat at the next table.
It was sickening to see all the locals coming up and kissing his behind like he was god. Smoltz was hating it even though he loved it.
My fondest memory was when nobody at the moment was falling all over him. He looked at me and gave me a look like......Don't you know who I am? I am John Smoltz god damn it!
I did not look at him again. Dude is a douche. |
