    Funny story,I was training for the 1988 Olympics,I had a off day and went to play some b-ball on the OSU campus. It was after football season and,I was guarding Barry in a pick up game.I turned around and all I could see was the bottom of his shoes he was dunking on a ally-oop🤣

    I remember in 1988 at the Seoul Olympics, I was leaving my room in the Olympic village headed to my finals match. I saw Coach Gable in his room, I peaked in and said coach, I’m on my way to pick up my Gold medal are you coming? You don’t want to miss this!😳 he nodded 👍🏽lol

    (1/2) Talk about an iconic duo! This picture is from the 1988 Olympics. @kenny_monday is the first African American wrestler to win an Olympic gold medal. Dave Schultz asked Kenny Monday if he could be in his corner, Monday beat Schultz at the Olympic Trials.

    It’s amazing the platform that you have and to be so misinformed! “They” don’t hate cops! They hate the injustice and the act of some police killing and shooting unharmed black men and women! When it’s unnecessary and continues to happen! I don’t condone but I do understand!
