No Bling Here

In the not too distant future another #4 -- Brett Favre -- will retire to his lawnmower in Mississippi. And 20 years from now, we'll wistfully recall his playing days, like many of us do for the good ole days of the Bucks.

Remember Sidney Moncrief? And those kelly green, light green, forest green, red, and white uniforms from the mid 1980s with the horizontal stripes down the side?

The NBA was so less jive back then, even lanky white kids like me fit in, sorta.

The current Bucks unis have always sucked. Face it, the visage of a male deer becomes menacing only in deer camp after 15 Pabsts.

The beauty in that nickname/logo was personified by the down-home loopiness of Bango and his church-bazaar sewn costume. I can still hear Eddie Doucette call it from the ole MECCA; Moncrief drives the lane, ham and cheese in the toaster....BANGO!

What a player!
