Teaching Basketball History and respect for officials

[bossref]

It's great that you teach the history of hoops.

I grew up within 2 miles of the original Converse factory.
I played sparingly at Malden HS and New Prep and ULowell.
I got to see Russell, Heinsohn, Cousy, Sharman, Havlicek,KC Jones, Frank Ramsey, Jo Jo White, Dave Cowens, etc in person.
I've played pickup with Dr J in 1968 and worked with Magic Johnson for 15 years at his summer camps.
I've officiated since 1973.
I've met and associated with some greats like Bill Walton, Dr Ernie Vandweghe, Lorenzo Romar, Swen Nater, Kareem, and worked an all star game with Cedrick Ceballos and Jason Kidd.
I own an officiating service in San Diego.

Basketball has been very very good to me.

Your website must be an inspiration to many young people.
Keep up the good work.
