After all this time the self annointed public scolds still can't let it go. SMH.

That was a good read.

The only "Jail Blazer" who deserved the label was Ruben Patterson.

The Jail Blazer era also included the Sabonis era, and must therefore have been the best of times.

My thought exactly, when I saw the thread title. Portland sportswriter moralists keep reliving their happiest years. "Waah, we have no one to persecute anymore." Maybe Olshey or Stotts? "But...they're white."

I just want some stories. Fuck the historical relevance or moralizing. The ABA had Marvin Barnes playing high on PCP, wall to wall hookers and a former player becoming a diamond smuggler to be murdered by Idi Amin. I want at least one story that I can put in my all time scrap book of memorable sports anecdotes.

Just ordered it and read the first chapter online. Should be good.
