I loved Curly Neal & that whole group of Globetrotters made me fall in love with basketball as a kid. I would spend hours trying to spin the ball on my finger and pass the ball behind my back because of him. I’m actually shocked he was only 77? I thought he was at least as old as Meadowlark Lemon who died a few years ago.
No you aren’t. I know lots of good, smart folks in PA. A couple of the smartest men I’ve ever known were born and raised in WV. The friend I quoted is from rural Maine, and now a professor of neurochemistry. There are awful people from many other states. Let’s not forget our Grifter in Chief is from the coastal elite NYC! No one region has a lock on assholedom.
Sad news,for those of us who grew up watching the golden era of the Globetrotters:

Curly was always my favorite Globetrotter.
Same.
It was always Curly, and then Meadowlark for me💖
Somehow I’m not surprised that the woman in question who coughed on the produce lives in Pennsyltucky.
There are certainly plenty of idiots in that part of the country. But, as a friend of mine says” the assholes are universally distributed!”
Not all of us are assholes.

Technically, he’s from Queens and we all know that place is fucking stacked with assholes.

Who will be this year’s Pope Thrower or Jimbob Ghostkeeper? I for one await the battle.
there will NEVER be another Pope Thrower!
I’d like to see Jizyah Shorts drop by for another round though.
