The Red Army Club and the Soviet Wings played an 8-game exhibition tour against teams from the NHL during the Cold War years. The Wings played with worn out skates and gloves but went 3-1 on NHL ice.

      I found a video called "Basketball Drive" in which the host, who didn't identify himself, said Pippen "suggested" Phil's decision "was motivated by racism". It was followed by reaction from Shaquille O'Neal, who said, "Phil was not a racist". The only sound bite from Pippen had him saying "he felt disrespected by Phil." If you can find the direct quote of Pippen accusing Phil of racism, please pass it along.

    I was 9 years old at the time. I remember being bummed out that the second game was canceled. I was really into baseball as a kid but when I learned the reason for the cancellation of the game, I gotta admit, I thought it was cool. I was raised to hate disco by my two older brothers. "Goodbye, Sister Disco" was a song regularly spun by my older brother who had the Who Are You record. My older sister was into disco because she was always into fads but we never paid her much attention.

      I had the priviledge of covering scores of outstanding people during my broadcasting career, but no one impressed me more than Jim Finks. He had a special presence about him. I never heard anyone speak ill of him. He had a nice way of getting his point across. I heard him take issue with a columnist that wrote something Finks didn't like. He simply told him that "he was disappointed that you would write that." He also made it known that he didn't like some of my commentary during an 8-game losing streak. He said, "Brad, you're not a 'homer', are you?" I told him I was a 'homer' in that I wanted the Bears to do well, but I'm not a 'house' man." I think Jim respected that. (I was the color/commentator on the Bears' radio broadcasts from 1977-1984. The Bears moved from WBBM to WGN in 1985, a year after Jim Finks resigned from the Bears rather than work for Michael McCaskey.)

  • @JF-rt9ww
    @JF-rt9ww 3 місяці тому

    Jim Finks was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1995 after a 30-year stellar career as the President and GM /architect/scout/talent evaluator of the Purple People Eater/Bud Grant Vikings era, the 1985 Bears team (we know how great they were), and the Saints (Jim Mora era). During his 7 years with the Saints, they made the playoffs for the first time in their history numerous times and they won more games in that 7 year span with the exception of the 49ers. He was selected by the NFL owners selection committee to be the next the NFL commissioner after Rozelle retired, but because of 10 bone head new NFL owners at the time in 1989 (Jerry Jones, Debartalo, and others) , it did not happen. And he was a very very good QB with the Steelers who at that time had very very mediocre defenses. Paul Brown said Jim Finks is a great QB and if I didn't have Otto Graham as my QB, I would love to have him on my team. Jims Finks told the exact truth as to why Johnny U was cut. If he wasn’t, he would have been Jim Finks’ backup.
