    Besides being a Hall of Famer, Ron Mix always was a good man too.

            Wow. Thanks. Amazing how young he looks. I didn't recognize him. Of course, no one would recognize ME from the time I was 20-something, but that's beside the point.

              No sweat. To me, he looks more like the Jack Kemp (the politician) that I was familiar with in the picture in the article. I'm right there with you, I don't look anything like I did at 20-something either.

                Its rare that a group can come together like that and take a stand. Great story.

                  Boycotting the Clippers will be easy. I've been boycotting them since they ditched my city.

                  Go Aztecs, Chargers, and Padres of all races. You all are welcome to be seen with me.

                      The dude was like a cockroach, so glad they got rid of him. I wonder if San Diego can fold an arena into a stadium deal and get the NBA back.
