It was an honor talking again to one of my favorite athletes and people, NBA Hall of Famer Earvin "Magic" Johnson.  I first met him in Los Angeles in July 1991 when I won a bronze medal in team handball for the North Region in the U.S. Olympic Festival.  But, it was years before digital cameras so today I finally had my chance to get my photo with Magic.  Wooo!

During our brief reunion, I told him how I predicted a Lakers championship in the 2008-2009 season.  I think Bynum is a difference maker.  He gave me the thumbs up.  Keep the faith!  Go Lakers!  Go Magic!
