Message: [QUOTE="HCCForever, post: 5009986, member: 8959"] I'm old enough to remember Walton's great skill at UCLA and watched that terrific performance against Memphis State and also the loss to David Thompson and NC State in 1974. They spoke about him on PTI today and MIke mentioned that he often had to lay down during broadcasts due to the pain in his ankles and back. Tough guy. I also witnessed first hand his love of music. I was in the pit for Springsteen at Fenway in September of 2003. Bill was there as well and not hard to miss. Unfortunately, I did not have the opportunity to speak to him. I enjoyed his multiple part series on ESPN a short time ago especially when he talked about the 86 Celtics at a Dead concert. RIP Bill. [/QUOTE]
