re: Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf still playing at 41 in Japan

Chris was EASILY the 2nd best player to ever wear the purple and gold, with apologies to His Shaqnificant.

I was in Denver when MAR started with his black separatist, Muslim infantilism.

He was at that point, a very sad spectacle, who had tried to replace his own alienation at the world (tourettes, extreme poverty, family dysfunction, really poorly educated, largely ignorant of any knowledge of American ideals & history) with some kind of meaning, some kind of value system, that would provide him with some inner peace.

Sadly for him, he picked one that leads only to further alienation, and that is Fundamental paranoid black separatism/jailhouse Islam.

I am glad he is doing well and living in Japan. I will always pull for him.
