One of my High School teammates died a few weeks ago


Jack Osborne, I knew him as Ozzie.

The leader of 'The Chinese Bandits' (an insider thing)

I post this Ozzie photo because his family posted a really bad photo of him in his Obituary.

I also post the photo because the caption says that Ozzie was being guarded here by Paul McDowell.

And Paul McDowell would be the father-in-law to my Son Sam.

I know it is a really bad photo but it was taken 51 years ago!

And since I have Michael's 1964 scrapbook open I will post this photo...


Those white boys are scattering...
Soaring & Scoring!

My memory of Ozzie was that he was the "spark" off the bench for your team. He wasn't as talented but he made stuff happen... good and bad. Every team needs someone like that, right? RIP Ozzie.

btw, I always loved the "V-neck" jerseys. You guys were ahead of your time.

one other thing, what kind of move were you making when that pic was taken? Was that you "no-look", "rain-maker"?
