"Cousy looks like a dwarf ... "

The College of the Holy Cross has decided to dedicate the latest issue of the school's official magazine to one of their most famous alumni ... You might recognize the name Bob Cousy, ever heard of him?

The college has seen fit to provide several features from the magazine and make them available on their website at:


There's a lot of good stuff there for anyone's who is an admirer of the legendary Celtics point guard ... Everything from audio clips from an interview with the man himself, to a photo gallery, to a great piece written by noted sports columnist Dave Anderson (nytimes.com) which details Cousy's impact on basketball at both the college and pro levels.

If that's not enough, there's even a complete reproduction (in PDF format) of "The Bob Cousy Story", a biography in comic-book format which first appeared in the April 12th (1962) issue of "The Treasure Chest of Fun and Fact" (wrlc.org) ... Holy Cross Crusaders, Batman!
