of my mentor, surrogate father, boss & coach-Jim Cunningham-of the Fordham teams from the fifties. Jim (RIP-we lost him to cancer in 91) was a first-round pick of the Celtics. John, I think, was a sophomore when Jim was a senior.
I met him during a couple of reunions at Rose Hill. It was obvious that what Jim said about John was true-nicest guy in the world, although he was a fierce competitor when he was playing . Sad news . RIP
Graduated from High School and had the Knicks and Rangers to watch basically every night.
But Marv and John bring back such great memories of watching Knick games.
except Marv and John calling 70's Knicks games on the radio
