I remember as a kid throwing a used jock strap at Mean Joe Green when he was in Dallas. It was in mockery of his Coke commercial (SNL skit with Mean Joe portrayed as a sumo wrestler) where he throws the jersey to the kid who offers him his soda. I wish now that I had never done it but it was well-received (at the game) by Cowboys fans around me.
Zimmy if that is a true story (and I am sure it is, surer than Bill Cosby is into comely womans) that is a great story. The nuance, the subtlety, the anti-capitalistic statement about our game and how cheeply it succomb to commercialism . . . well, I am all atwitter.
I half efen more respect for you than ever. As a kid I would not half thot to do that. With meine Farmers Branch education and my feral upbringing I would half shouted at him "Yo mama!" Yes, i am of the proletarian masses. Proud in meine low cerebral ability and prone to utter our Fair City's slogan that is "Gimme a glazed!" or "I am hear for the Beer!" Some like you and Corso (he has wrote an amazing screenplay. For reals!) is thinkers. Some like me are merely handsome and thow out manys bon mots, but not deep. Ok, how did i end up in this desulatory comments? Must be my nativity but I means well and I am a hell of a good cook!
