Most admired basketball player: Jerry West of the Los Angeles Lakers. His home town is just across the river from mine. He is a small town boy made good. Every little boy in our neighborhood loved Jerry West.
Best sporting event witnessed: 1985 NCAA Men's Basketball college national championship game as Villanova upset Georgetown. It is one of the biggest upsets in college basketball history. Some say it was the biggest upset.
Best sporting event attended: I love any college football game on a Saturday afternoon. The best was watching my son play for the University of Alabama.
Best team of the season: Boston Celtics. I think they will repeat again as NBA champs.
