I appreciate what you are saying. I remember in 1962 going with my father to a game at Fordham, Rose Hill. Yale vs. Princeton for I think a play in to the tourney, but I don't recall. Bill Bradley was then a senior at Princeton. His pregame warmup was shooting either close to the basket and gradually moving farther out taking shots, or starting far out and dribbling and taking shots closer in. Rick Kaminsky was the star for Yale and I think the Knicks drafted him. He became a surgeon in Texas where he was from. And maybe is 80 now.

Here is something else from ancient days. Fans did not wave their arms to distract the foul shooter and fans did not shout out obscenities at the referees for a perceived "bad call."

Take heart. Students study ancient history and ancient languages and even teach both. So some people like what came before their time. Even doo wop music, which I love, is having a resurgence with younger European groups like the Crystalairs from Germany and the BrillianTears from I am not sure where.

Others do appreciate what came before them.

Yes, the years fly by. Hopefully we all learn from our mistakes and keep growing.
