bulls and bull#$%@

[Gene Kirkpatrick <gkir@tjc.tyler.cc.tx.us>]

I don't usually talk like that, but the notion by some "writer" who is
probably all of 26 years old and really "knows" all about the history of the
league, that the Bulls are the "best of all time" is pure horse hockey.  One
point only (there are many that sane people would accept), is that in
recent years the Bulls have beaten a new finalist each year.  The Celtics
had to war against major, perennial powers in the East and the West in a
non-diluted league with major individual opponents to boot.  And some
people actually think Russell and Cousy would not eat this bunch alive.
Come on.  With Sharman to bomb the threes, with Russell and Heinsohn
to dominate the boards.  The Bulls aren't even close to being the best of
all time--only of the nineties.

Just wait two weeks.  Like the millions of Bulls fans that will disappear
suddenly, so will this wacky, ill-informed idea.

Utah.  Utah.  Utah.
