RIP Jack Twyman

Sports lost one of the all-time greats on Wednesday in basketball HOFer Jack Twyman. Twyman was an excellent college and pro player, but his reputation off of the court was even bigger. Twyman organized more charity events than can be counted. His work with Maurice Stokes after Stokes' injury was what mankind is all about. Rest in peace, Jack. I wish sports (and the world) had a lot more guys like you around.

    RIP Mr. Twyman. I never realized that when he retired in 1966 he trailed only Chamberlain in points scored, with 15,840.
    STAY HEALTHY!

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
