It was kind of worse than Howard Cosell and his “Look at that monkey run!”
I didn’t think Cosell should have been fired for that back in the day.
The player name was Monk, Art Monk.


Omg, I’d heard that story, but I never knew the guy’s name was MONK. That makes the firing so much more stupid.

It was Alvin Garrett, not Art Monk that Cosell made the comment about.

Atually I was wrong (corrected at 136) the guys name is Alvin Garret.
A smaller black player that Cosell kept calling little monkey.
I asked the mod to remove my comment.
