Message: [QUOTE="EricLA, post: 3412909, member: 26"] Great post. I totally get your comment about your wife - and you are right, most fans on the BY are pretty rabid so we TOTALLY get how excited you were/are. I had the pleasure of meeting Geno and sitting with him for close to 2 hours when he was in San Diego watching Charde Houston play. My brother was there and we asked him ALL kinds of questions. He absolutely could not have been more gracious - he literally sat with us the entire game (never moving away to pay more attention to Charde's game, or just to get away from us). We tried to be super respectful - not peppering him with too many questions, but he never flinched. I still remember it like it was yesterday. The nuggets he dropped were awesome. And his commentary on Charde's play was priceless. One nugget "Oh yeah, she just looked over to see if I was paying attention. Now watch - she will try to do something amazing with the ball". Geno=Nostradamus. Charde got the ball, drove the length of the court, did a spin move, stopped on a dime, spun the other way and layed the ball up. Then she looked over at Geno again to see if he was still watching, and he said to us, "See? I told you!"... [/QUOTE]
