Steven you will be happy to know that the Sixers scrubed the Celtics last night!

The guy who would come to the all-star game 3 point shooting contest asking the other participants who was going to come in 2nd! I had a chance to pick up some signed Magic basketball cards from a friend. I was able to get a signed Larry Bird card as well. Had to do it. Since Magic and Bird are such good friends, I plan on displaying them together! Congratulations!
Now this is a story! I really enjoyed reading that one so much that the only way I could respond is with more pictures! Thanks for sharing!

Jonathan, it's really Dino that started the TRF craze I'm just happy to overwhelm TRF with more pictures since I did not have the customary incoming threads for my other Subs As we discussed yesterday you can't go wrong with whomever you choice, both gents are excellent. We will chat later! Have a safe and wonderful weekend in NYC! These are my last set of pics! On to the next one

Thanks Sam!!! I didn't get to see how this thread ended up as I had flown to Vegas with some college bodies this past weekend and just got back! Awesome pictures!!! 76ers put the smack down on the Celtics and the Bird Magic pics are, of course, legendary. Sad that both players ended their careers prematurely. Bird had so much back trouble that he was in excruciating pain at the end. Magic we know made his announcement 20 years ago. Wow how time flies. What an awesome and entertaining thread and again congratulations!

I guess you can tell what was on the brain. I meant college buddies. Though we saw plenty of college bodies this weekend. Along with a large traveling contingent of NASCAR fans.

The Bird is the Word! I hate you! No, I don't really hate you, I just hate that you have that watch and I don't! That watch is next on my list. I love my LN, but intend to add "The Bird" to the mix next!
