    LOL…I forgot about that commercial. Great commercial though, most folks forget how lethal Bernard King was when he was healthy, and who could guard Mark Aquirre?

    I never cared much for Converse Weapons though, those shoes were HEAVY!

    Thanks for the walk down memory lane Claude…

    Hey Roy, that’s how I felt when I found this. I never liked the Weapons either. What I liked was the Pro Leathers! I remember I played in a pick up game in Dallas one time with Mark Aguirre on my team (or rather, I was on his team!). He yelled at me for something I didn’t do one time, basically, I didn’t clear out fast enough for his fat a$$. :-) But it was all in fun, and a memorable experience for me. He was cool just to show up.
