No, that's about how old I thought he was.

He was overrated.

It has been painful realizing that over the years.

I actually thought he was older. He looks older than 60.

Who would have ever thought that this goofy-looking dude would be one of the greatest basketball players of all time...

Larry Bird wouldn't even be better than Tyler Hansborough in today's game. Meh.

I remember when he was just a myth. You'd see small stories in the sports section that Larry Bird of Indiana State had 40 points, 19 rebounds and 8 assists against New Mexico or somebody. Hell, it was a long time before casual basketball fans even knew he was white.

Lost all respect for him after learning he did not acknowledge his daughter that is a spitting image of him.

Larry bird looked 60 when he was 20. I figured he was 80.

He's only 60?

He was just a few years past playing age when Space Jam came out? I thought he was in his 50s then.
