Birthday Fever

All born today, and submitted for your approval – a motivational speaker with one sack on his stat line, a motivated golfer who just can’t seem to win the big one, the best fake sports agent in the history of fake sports agents, the best basketball player in the history of Lower Merion High School, the best basketball player in the history of the Netherlands, perhaps the 20th century’s most graceful dancer and most athletic drummer, an Winter Olympics legend and a Summer Olympics darling, two quarterbacks (one great, one not so much), two baseball players (one great, one incredibly old), and last but certainly not least, the strongest man ever to regularly wear a dress.

  2. Kevin Says:

    keith moon.

    my fav drummer of all time.

  3. Chief Says:

    kev,
    Keith Moon over John Bonham or Mitch Mitchell? I dunno.

  4. Kevin Says:

    yeah i would pick him over both.

    the dude used to dress up alot in pirate costumes and other outlandish outfits.

    and he blew out Pete T.’s eardrum.

    and thats one of the few times Pete Townsend and the word blew have been used in a sentence without sexual reference.

  5. Large Says:

    Keith Moon over Tony Williams?

  6. Chief Says:

    I thought we were just sticking to 70′s era classic rock drummers, but Large brings up an excellent point.

    Keith Moon over Art Blakey?

  7. Unsilent Majority Says:

    What a great picture of Sonny.
