Hmmm, Joan Weston. There are other "elder" statesmen on this site!!

I'm probably one of the eldest, glad I don't feel it (except when I run into someone from high school who asks if I'm going to the 50th reunion...50th reunion? GTF outta here!).

As for Dion, impressed with his skating prowess, but, as a LeBron ergo Cavs fanatic who is uber-jacked to see Dion running with LBJ, Kyrie, Love, et al., would like to see him minimize his extracurricular "athletics" or at least wear a helmet. He's on the cusp of a potentially break-out season, no need to go risking slipping and hitting his head or other body parts (of course, I'm projecting. because I can't roller skate forwards, let alone in reverse)

Man, I wish I could skate backwards.

There is still some roller derby today but nothing like it was "back in the day."

Well I could not help it, but to fall in love
With this heavy duty woman I've been speaking of
Things were kinda bad, until the day she skated into my life
Well she might be nasty, she might be fat
But I never met a person who would tell her that
She's my bleach blonde bomber, my heavy handed Hackensack sack mama

The night that I fell in love with a roller derby queen
around and round, a round and round
The meanest hunk of woman that anybody ever seen

 

[Fireball Jr.]

Uh oh, Dion's name being brought up again in trade talk, don't see LeBron, or the Cavs, letting him get away.

I appreciate Dion more and more every day. This guy was an incredible player for us. Put aside all that goes/went with declaring for the draft - I just wish I could have seen what he'd do in his two remaining years with us. I think he would have left as one of the all-time greats in Orange. Absolutely loved the guy's game and attitude.

Wow, a Jim Croce reference on the Syracuse board. Kudos.
