It was something wonderful to see. and it was something wonderful to hear. One night before, he’d lost his composure, clambered up into the stands and let out his pent up frenay on a basketball fan who'd been handing him a merciless riding. And people won dered what was wrong—what was the reason—what had the fan said. But now. who cares. The big kid won the love and admiration of all who heard him. There was something unprofessional—unpolished dR»ut Bob Peterson’s public apology, and had it been otherwise, t. e sincerity of the gesture would have been lost. There has been some question as to whether the big tel low did it on lus own, or was put up to it. It just deesn t make a particle of difference. He didn’t hav e to if he uidu t want to.
