CARL LEWIS'S STAR-SPANGLED BANNER... 14 YEARS AGO.


Let's take the time to remember a great moment in sports which took place just over 14 years ago. January 21, 1993 was the day Carl Lewis, perhaps the 20th century's most underrated athlete, treated a packed house in East Rutherford, N.J., to his rendition of the national anthem. I consider it one of the most memorable moments in Nets history.

I have an audio clip, as well as a shortened video clip. Both contain Carl's amazing "Uh-oh" and "I'll make up for it now" ad-libs. You might also remember
Derrick Coleman, a man once accused of pissing in the middle of a restaurant, hiding under his warmup jacket in embarrassment. All quality material.

God Bless the U.S.A.
