We watched a great movie last night. It's called Glory Road, and it was about the Texas Western College basketball team, that played Kentucky for the NCAA championship in 1966.

Rose, did you hear anything about this team when you were growing up? I think Don Haskins was the first coach to use black players as starters on a Div. 1 team.

We were surprised that it was so funny, as well as poignant and dramatic.
