A little tidbit about Bill Laimbeer. (Long live the "Bad Boys"!!!)
He vacations and has relatives in my area of the state. (Same town as Dan Majerle is from) Those guys were something else from that Detroit Pistons era. Dennis Rodman was pretty normal for a while.
Any way, Laimbeer put on a softball tournament and golf outing each summer for muscular dystrophy, and made large donations from the proceeds. I got to participate and got to know him a little.
He "play acted" that "thug" thing pretty well. He was a very kind humanoid in real life.
He has a 6'2" daughter that plays for a highly respected high school in the Detroit area.
He was always my favorite "Bad Boy".
