Worked on it a little more this morning. Let me know what you think:
I remember Pullenīs hands, dribbling up the court with care.
And reaching out to steal the ball, when I had a nightmare.
You could read quite a story, in the callouses and lines.
Years of work and worry had left their mark behind.
I remember Pullenīs hands, how they held that ball so tight,
And Martin yelling in his face, for something not done right.
There are things that Iīve forgotten, that I loved about the man,
But Iīll always remember the magic in Pullenīs hands.
I remember Pullenīs hands, dribbling 'til they bled.
Sacrificed unselfishly, just to keep my EMAW fed.
If I could do things over, Iīd live my life again.
And never take for granted the magic in Pullenīs hands.
Pullen's hands were soft and kind when I grabbed them.
Pullen's hands were hard as steel when he bricked a three.
Pullen's hands weren't always accurate, but I've come to understand.....
There was always magic in Pullen's hands.
It is posts like this that find their way to other boards and NO good can come to our university, our teams, and our fans by putting this crap out there. There comes a time in a man's life that he needs to learn to shut up, repress thoughts that should be repressed, and leave "creativity" in the hands of professionals.
Can we get this thread deleted (or just specific posts)?
