I trust you are still "dazed and confused." My remarks concerning Bias had to do with unrealized potential and why people still seem obsessed with Kennedy who was long on potential and short on accomplishments. My point was that this obsession is not limited to Kennedy. Some sports writers (Mike Wilbon) are still writing about the unrealized potential of Len Bias.

OK- I guess I follow that. I may have missed the point because I hate basketball and never read sports columns about it.

Three years ago the Basketball Hall Of Fame announced it's top-50 all time team. I forget, where did Bias finish on that list? My point is this: I see Kennedy finish in the top ten presidents of all time rankings all the time. Often, he's top-5. What this tells me is
1) There are a lot of ignorant people in this country
2) The liberal media spin on Camelot has been incredibly effective.
