What gift has Redmen basketball given you ?

Jack I am so so very sorry to hear about your son. My Dad was diagnosed with brain cancer this past September, 2 days before his 88th birthday. He chose to fight (once a Marine always a Marine) rather than go home and be made comfortable, but sadly we lost him 2 weeks ago today to an infection that his compromised immune system(from chemo/radiation) was to weak to fight off. I am not trying to compare the 2 situations as I cannot imagine anything worse than losing a child. None the less it has been a rough holiday season for us. My heart goes out to you and your family.

Wow ! Where does one start?
First of all Merry Christmas Paul and thank you for being "the straw that stirs the drink" here on Redmen.
If it wasn't for you I wouldn't have met so many great people and fellow St. John's fanatics.
We are all united by our passion and loyalty.
Among my fondest memories was taking my father to many. many St. John's games including The Final 4 in '85.
He wasn't an alumnus but he adopted the team as his own and wore a red cardigan with the St. John's Indian logo on it almost every day during the season.

Great stories, and I can only add my condolences to those who have lost loved ones, it is truly difficult and many prayers there to all.
What the Redmen have given me is so much fun, and the one thing I am most passionate about other than my wife and daughters..... and I am known throughout my family, my friends, co workers, former co workers, as “that St. John’s guy”, and I wouldn’t for one moment trade it for anything else.
