I remember when Krusty the Klown lost a bundle betting on the Generals. “Man, I thought they were due”

HE was a great performer and fun to watch. I'll miss the man

RIP.

He agreed to take a nightly beating in order to make the other guy look good and to put food on his own table.

In many ways, he was the forerunner of John Boehner and Mitch McConnell.

Homer Simpson called the Nazis the ‘Washington Generals of the History Channel’.

Saperstein asked if Klotz would form a team to compete against the Globetrotters on a regular basis.

"Compete with"? Perform with, would have been a better choice of words. It was entertaining though, when I was 12 years old.

Klotz, like many players from that era, had an excellent two-hand set shot. I saw him on tv one time in a “game” between the Generals and the Globies make three in a row shooting in front of his bench from about 30 feet away with no problem. Too bad they didn’t put in the three point shot at the beginning of the NBA.
