Who did you play sports against in those younger days?

I played in a summer basketball camp against Joe Forte, who went on to be drafted in the first round by the Boston Celtics (and surprisingly only played a very short two years in the NBA) as well as former NBA lottery pick Adonal Foyle. Foyle could throw an outlet pass like no one I have ever seen. He could make a pass the entire length of the court like he was passing to someone five feet away.

I used to guard Billy McCaffrey (won a title at Duke, two time all american at Vandy) in pickup games. He barely tried and made me look very silly.

At first I thought you meant Joe Forte, the referee! All 5'4" of him

In a 3 on 3 pickup basketball game near Columbia, I had the "honor" of guarding Beasley Reese (Sic) of the New York Football Giants. He mercifully took it pretty easy on me but was by far the best player on the court.

In a softball game when I was at Beckett, one of the opposing team's best hitters was Dave Hostleter. I tell you, 10 years after his major league career ended, he bashed 3 homers against us.

Held Dan Dakich to 2-3 in a rec league softball game 25 years ago or so.

Played in a pickup football game against Trent Green in college. I stepped in front of one of his passes for an easy pick six, and dropped the ball...
