I guess the NBA player who has had the most names is on the Spurs. He started as Anthony Parker, then became Tony Parker, now is Tony Longoria-Parker.

And you know something? I can't blame him for the last change. WOW!

Change the signature....
....if you go on the baseball board...
Coach - he hit the ball - and it's a fundamental principle of this game that you cannot foul the ball.

Of all of the men who have coached men's basketball at the University of Kansas, only one has a losing record for his time as the Jayhawks coach. Who is he?

Question
OK - here's a weird one. What former NBA team owner went to the same HS as me? And what two MLB all-star pitchers also went to that same HS?

If my memory serves me well, I think that you stated previously on this fourm that this person is Jerry Colangelo.

Working off the fact that Colangelo's bio states that he attended Bloom High School in Chicago Heights, Illinois (and I know that Padgett grew up in Chicago), I found one of the other alums to be "Jim Bouton is a former Major League Baseball pitcher (1962–70, 78), playing most of his career for the New York Yankees. He is also an author Ball Four."

I can't seem to find the other MLB all-star pitcher.

That explains it. He was so disgusted with you guys that he quit after losing the game.
