This was a great post!  I do not think that a lot of people realized that
Wilt and Bill were friends and fraternity brothers.  They along with K.C.
Jones, Satch Sanders, and Sam Jones are members of Kappa Alpha Psi
fraternity.  It was good to see someone post a positive post about 
Bill's perspective of playing against the Stilt.
*****************************************************************************

Around the time of Russell's tribute this spring he was a guest of radio 
personality Don Imus and was discussing Wilt's amazing abilities -
including 
a 55 rebound game.  ln regard to that game Russell cackled "...and l was
on 
the court watching him".

Even tho Wilt was always the enemy, having him as an obstacle put an
extra 
stamp of greatness on both Russell and the Celtic teams.  Wilt was
everything 
that Shaq should be but won't be.  He was Superman while Russ was more
like 
Batman, getting the job done without the superhuman powers.  For those of
us 
who lived through what was the greatest head-to-head rivalry in
professional 
sports, a legend has passed on.
