Biamba Mutombo sold Cokes at the Ali-Foreman Rumble in the Jungle in Kinshasa in 1974. “All I know of the fight is she made a lot of money that night,” her son Dikembe told me in the Time & Life cafeteria lunch line, while dapping every rubber-gloved hand that served him. 5.3K views · 29 likes · 3 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

Because all hockey is local, @rebeccalobo asked if the Hartford Whalers or the Hartford Wolfpack coach just won the Stanley Cup. 6.8K views · 52 likes · 1 reposts · 3 replies Open on X →

Bill Walton once told me his Dad “was the most unathletic man I’ve ever seen.” Ted loved art, music and sang in the church choir. Bill’s Mom, Gloria, was a librarian, so Bill read voraciously. “My parents gave me the perfect life,” he said. “Opportunities to stimulate my mind.” 24.8K views · 557 likes · 40 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

My next book is NIGHTS IN WHITE CASTLE, a memoir of high school, college and leaving home in the 1980s. It answers the question, “Whatever happened to that kid from Sting-Ray Afternoons?” Judge this one by its gorgeous cover. Available for pre-order now. https://t.co/YIem3tufkD 0 views · 329 likes · 34 reposts · 75 replies Open on X →
