33 years ago today, wow!

33 years after Len Bias's death, a writer's daily reminder of what we lost and why it's still so hard to let go | NBC Sports Boston


The kid was an amazing talent and it's a shame we didn't get to see him on the big stage.

The 1986 Cocaine Draft. Tarply, Washburn, Bedford and, of course, Len were all top 10 picks that year. Of course, too, it was the 80's.

A buddy of mine, back then, said that there was a glass pipe with a bowl as big around as a quarter selling at the head shop called the "Len Bias." That buddy didn't make it much past the 80's either. :shock:
