So we're on the way up to New England for a wedding on Sunday and am visiting my Dad up in Wilkes-Barre for dinner. We get into a discussion, since it's happened on my birthday, about the death of Len Bias.
( musing )
Len Bias was a god in Maryland, but I didn't make the connection about how much he was a god in my household, especially to my mom, until this discussion. My mom adored basketball. She grew up in Kentucky so it's only natural. In fact she was at UK at the same time as Pat Riley. It's taken me this long to realize where Matt got his love of basketball from. It's a shame she isn't here to see it.
