Al Goes Out In Style....must read material

Written by: NY Warrior

Courtesy of a faithful Cracked Sidewalks reader, here is the actual Sports Illustrated cover story recounting Marquette's 1977 National Championship.  If that link is slow, here's the landing page.

Good reading and thanks!!

That was nice to read - I remember it well :)
I bought a copy of that SI issue on eBay a number of years ago, and I sent it to Al to see if he would autograph it.  After a month passed, I thought - oh well, he's probably just too busy.  Then one day, there was a package in the mail - YES - the SI magazine had been returned - and Al signed the cover - it' son of my prize possessions; he died like a year and later.

GO MARQUETTE!!!
