Message: [QUOTE="thebigeast44, post: 1457719, member: 885"] Best wishes to the Pearl. My love for Syracuse basketball began in the glory days of the 80's. Just as the Babe built Yankee Stadium, the Pearl built the Dome. I'll never forget during my semester abroad in the Fall of 1985 in Vienna, Austria and seeing the face of Pearl Washington gracing the cover of the Big East Conference yearbook on a local newsstand there - I didn't expect to see that there but what a welcome surprise! Pearl's smiling face after he just made someone look foolish with that amazing crossover always made me smile. I've always wondered and I'm sure he has what would have happened had he played alongside the General his Senior year - it would have been a hell of a show! Get well Pearl - we're rooting for you just as we always have and always will. [/QUOTE]
