Happy Birthday, Larry

There are two people who got me interested in the NBA as a kid:

1) My father

2) Larry Bird

And the Legend was instrumental in rekindling my father’s passion for the game.

Larry turned 53 today. 

Over at Basketbawful, the great Matt McHale (who also runs the Bulls blog By the Horns) terms Dec. 7 Birdmas. 

If you have a few minutes to spare, go read Matt’s Birdmas post. I embed the video below with his permission.
