And Ron Artest was known for his short temper. I’d have loved to see Larry mess with him.
The Hick from French Lick!
I love watching the old Bird trash talking videos. I hated him back then just because I was a Lakers fan, but I had no idea he talked so much. James Worthy said,“Larry Bird was an asshole!”
Trash talking :
I live in Terre Haute, where Indiana State University is. He played here in college. There’s a huge ugly statue of him that looks like he’s constipated outside the basketball arena and, no shit, they’re building a Larry Bird Museum at the convention center.
I hate this fucking town.
Here’s the statue:
That’s actually much better than he looked in real life.
I don’t sports and even I’ve heard the tales of Lawrence The Bird
I did not know that about Larry Bird! I looked it up after seeing this post and apparently his trash talking skills and his ability to psych people out are legendary lol
Basketball was a different game back then. As many fists thrown as insults.
