  1. The greatest winner in the history of sports. Something like this should have been done while he was still here to see it.

  2. Bill Russell, the GOAT!!! 11 out of 13 years, won MVPs and helped win the fight for Civil Rights!!!! R I P Bill

  3. I used to live in the same town as Satch Sanders. I got to meet him briefly and he could not have been more gracious. What a legend.
