Recently retired after 43 years at the Phoenix Public Library, I research and write about pro basketball history.
What's it going to be then?

Pioneers? Roses? Otters? Potheads?

Ross Andru is hugely underrated.

Big George was a helluva player.

For someone to get an automatic permanent ban they had to bet on a game they were an active participant in. It's worded that way to include managers and umpires in addition to the players.

That page is Joe Rubinstein.

That George Mikan was pretty good, wasn't he?

I've seen a few Avengers vs. Nefaria and Avengers vs. Ultron commissions, but surprisingly few Avengers vs. Kang commissions by Byrne.

These are what I consider to be the three big "home grown" avengers villains. You could also throw in the Grim Reaper, Korvac and the Collector, I suppose.

Byrne admitted on his message board that Shooter wasn't happy with the last page and got Cockrum to redo it (he also did a lot of covers at that time) and Byrne admits that Cockrum's page worked better for what Shooter wanted.

And the last page of issue 164 is actually Cockrum.

Here's Byrne's page that went unused.

Still a great read - Shooter and Byrne at their best.

Fourteenth Amendment
Section 1

"...nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

Person.

How can there be any confusion about this?

They're not eliminated yet. One more Dallas win or Phoenix loss will take care of that though.

For the first two of the BAA's three years the NBL was clearly the better league.

he shot 22 for 50 that game.

I like how the early logos were on their stomachs.

since 1982-83. So no Bill Russell, No Wilt, no Jerry West, missing half of Kareem's career.

Post-Wilt obviously. He lead in total points, rebounds or assists 19 times.
March 16, 2025 at 2:03 AM
Wilt led in total field goals 7 times, total points 7 times, total minutes 8 times and total rebounds 11 times.
