My drivers ed teacher was in love with Lucci -- he used to make us practice three-point turns in her driveway. Never got a glimpse of her, though.

I used to see her all the time at lunch at the 7th st cafe in garden city. She's pretty good looking all things considered ( like her being 90. lol )

Did you tip the waiter to dim the lights so you could give her the Pitino treatment? I heard she likes tall guys.

I was 10, it was the beginning of the summer and I had a cast on my leg when I started watching it as nothing else was on (pre-cable, Queens only had Channels 2 -13 and maybe 25) and my mom would watch it. 

OMG... All my Children...really!  As intriguing as it is let's keep this about Felix.
When you're a kid from New York and you do it in New York, that lasts forever!

Man.  Whats wrong with venturing off the path a little bit.  Keep it fresh!

Someone will eventually bring it back to Felix when something happens......like signing an LOI :)

Seriously, mod overkill. 
"I drink and I know things"

It's the off season. Can't the boys have a little fun? :)

damned if I do damned if I don't.  If we weren't waiting to hear  about felix's LOI.  I wouldn't care

Sorry but AMC was very popular show especially with pro athletes. Recall reading many articles on players who when asked how they spent their free time during the day would say they were hooked on AMC. Back to Felix-could have sworn I read a post somewhere that he had signed LOI because poster further stated that this should end speculation of glut of guards and needing extra schollie for a big would result in Felix either not coming or reclassifying to 13. May have been on redmen.

Page 12 of this thread, at the top mentions Zags tweeted that Felix did sign his LOI.


Really pleased that Balamou signed his letter of intent -- old news now, but I am still happy about it.

Curious that Balamou is from Guinea.  Anyone know of any other basketball players from Guinea who have played in the NCAAs or even NBA?

“@JonRothstein: Impressed with Felix Balamou's athleticism. Good on the break + defensively. Might be a specialist in St. John's 2-3 matchup zone.”

Theo!!

“@TheoRabinowitz: Balamou absolutely killing it in the third quarter. Three jump shots and 2 dunks. #stjbb”

I love hearing good news about this kid after all the crap that is said about him not being a rotation player.

I think he is a lot better then the recruiting services had him ranked. A nice pick up for Lavin.

Felix would be a pleasant surprise and a talented four year player.  Now Felix, bring in your buddy, Chris O.!
