:09—Here’s this for you “Allerdice Dragons” I ticked off. You did have greatness. Derek Subur – Will Herndon – William Kinsel – Coach Howard Bullard – The great Curtis Martin – The Dobbs brothers and your greatest all time legend Ms. Debbie Norrell. NOW SHUT UP!
:08—If you’re now reading your Wednesday edition of your New Pittsburgh Courier you still have time to take this rock solid advice to your local bookie. (yes you do, yes you do, we all know you gamble and you have a bookie.) Golden State will defeat the Cleveland CAVS in six games for the NBA title. Trust me on this. (huh?)
:07—Now you feel better about the Bucs? I told ya they would come around. Pitchers adjust to hitters early in the season and then hitters readjust to pitchers. Pirates 8 out of the last 10 games they’ll be ok.
:06—Funny, speaking of baseball I haven’t heard from “baseball expert” and my good friend Kevin Cameron for a while. Or for that matter Zik, Mike Booker or my old man about any sports topic. All I can say is it’s lonely at the top!
:05—But that’s all good. My new best friend is now “in the locker room.” My main “popcorn” logged in with some quality points last week. Welcome in son, and keep reading the New Pittsburgh Courier and Overtime!
:04—Speaking of experts…or those who think they are, this message goes out to the caller. “Keep it coming Mannnnnnnnn!!!!
:03—I know you miss the movie reviews…(yes you do, yes you do, you can say you don’t but I know you do.) There’s no movie review cause there’s no good movies. None-Zip-Nada. Stay tuned…that’s all folks!
:02—Here’s something else I know you love. The top 10 whatever list. This is a “big’ one and your gonna love it. Yes you will, oh yes you will. The Top 10 “Big Men” of the greatest game of all time. No. 1 Wilt “The Stilt” Chamberlain, No. 2 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, No. 3 Bill Russell, No. 4 Shaquille “Shack Daddy” O’Neal, No. 5 Hakeem “The Dream” Olajuwon, No. 6 Willis Reed, No. 7 Patrick Ewing, No. 8 Robert Parrish, No. 9 George Mikan, No. 10 Bob Lainer/Wes Unseld. You beg to differ? Well beg on my brother…text 412-628-4856 with your differ.
:01—In case you’re wondering or for some reason you missed it, the Achieving Greatness Inc., High School Life-Skills Seminar was a huge success. More than 50 of our best and brightest spent four hours with 20 of our most concerned coaches and adults including Master Jacquet Bazemore, Master Yusef, Dusty Long, Coach Wilford Dennis, Warren Wilson and Ernie Grooves. Special thanks goes out to Chuck Sanders and Savoy Restaurant, Highmark, Dr. William Simmons, Gibbons Soul Food Restaurant, UPMC, Mr. Will Anderson, and the Pittsburgh United Rays Corvette Club. And of course a huge thank you to the AGI staff, volunteers and ongoing supporters. We saw greatness up close and personal!
