Tom Boblittthat's merely a 3 game suspension.............
My dad worked at the Fairgrounds as a second job in the 1970's here in Louisville and I went to MANY MANY Kentucky Colonels ABA games during the timeframe. That was cool. Don't remember many of the specifics because I'm not nearly as old as HRBaker (had to get a quick dig in) but I do remember them and when they were folded by the evil KFC Chicken empire and John Y Brown.
Like David Goff, I'm for pro basketball staying out of Louisville. We were close on the Hornets and one other team (supposedly) and hopefully even after a new arena, we'll be able to avoid a team.
I watch the finals ocassionally and watched the Bulls a lot during the Jordan hey days but very little now. I check box scores occasionally to see the ONE player that Louisville has in the pros......Francisco Garcia of the Kings. Bout it.
I like the quote about the fans being the ones who lose.....with high ticket prices, high parking, high food costs, etc, it's no longer the run of the mill fan's game.......
