Bill Russell RIP

Post by dasnutnock3 »

In his college and pro career, he won 14 of the 17 competitions he entered. Good shout for the most successful sportsman of all time. Won 11 NBA championships and two as manager. A titan of his sport.

Sad news. Set some records that will never be broken and was one of sports earliest & most powerful activists too.

To add to that, of the 21 knockout games he played in his career, he won 21 of them.
