48. Hi, k_jerome. Can you get homesick for great athletes who acted like

Because Oscar was that for me. My god he played with the Cincinnati Royals! How many centuries ago was that? But I saw him play, and heard him speak a couple of times, and watched the quiet dignity he carried himself with.

A great man. I miss him.
