RSkinGM Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 I guess a 6'2" 260 lb guard back in the day.. dreaded the afternoon across from him. I can remember he and his son on the field after games. Mr. Butz had his arm around his sons' shoulders. Great scene In my memeory.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
