Re: John Mitchell
"Ladies and Gentleman when you have a team as old as we do our opportunities are slipping away to exploit them to the community. Young people now are interested in the Michael Jordans and Dominique Wilkins of the league, they like the young superstars. Im sure as you can see this creates a problem as our big three are not exactly in their prime anymore. We must play to the age demographic that our team represents in order to keep the seats filled and another type of Celtic green coming in. What I am proposing is we play to our strengths and a major one is our old dinosaurs players. Of course I am speaking of Bird, Parish and the other white guy. Dont get me wrong they have done alot, but they cant relate to the new generation of fans so lets have them relate to the Old Diaper wearing generation.
Older than dirt day will take place next week when the 76ers come to the garden. I want the community dinosaurs to meet our own. Pictures before the game, a pregame meal for everyone over 65 (stock up on gerber baby peaches). Naturally the game will be played at noon so that everyone can go to bed at a normal hour...you know 4pm. Anyone with any other ideas please feel free to respond to the memo and if they are good enough I will steal them and make them my own."
The other white guy was asked for comment he had this to say "No Comment."
Great stuff from the other white guy indeed.
