A little Trivia?

I know that this is probably not the best place to try and stump someone with sports trivia - but here goes:
"Who played center for UCLA between the years of Lew Alcindor and Bill Walton?"

Prizes??? you ask?

How about this: (to the first person that answers correctly)

Vintage Sports Illustrated issue (one of my favorites)

I agree with the person who said Steve Patterson....the Cavs drafted him and he led them to the playoffs and they won the championship........WHOA!!!! I am thinking about the guy before him and the guy after him who led their teams to championships....SORRY!!

Wow - it took a whole 14 mintues for the correct answer! I'm impressed (as long a syou didn't do a google for the answer).

PM me your address and the prize will be on it's way. And yes, that is a cigarette! Right in front of the dugout - and you can see people in the stand behind him.

Congratulations Lawnmowerman!

If anybody wants to try another one (no prizes)-
Nolan Ryan played for 4 different teams in the majors. What do those 4 teams have in common?

The complete correct answer is that the four teams were the 4 original expansion teams. Way to go guys!
