When basketball was basketball

Pre-Post-Jordan (when basketball still had a meaning): Rik Smits mustache, Pat Riley's hair, Larry Brown still a good coach, Patrick Ewing missing key shots (how did Greg Anthony fall down twice?!), X-man was the only muscular freak in the NBA, and sweet, salty Reggie.

In honor of Sol's 60, I wanted to give a shout-out to Jack Lalane. Truthfully, I didn't think much of it when I read he died last week (at 96) until I got bored and started procrastinating.

Here's a picture of him in his 80s doing fingertip pushups.



Here is a picture of the man at 71.


Here's a picture of him at age 60. Swimming from Alcatraz to San Francisco... in handcuffs... towing a 1000lb boat.


And finally, here's is a fuck you to everyone who thinks Michael Pollen invented this shit.




RIP homey.
