Rumor had it that Dave Jenning's wife and Joe Morris had an affair which led to a divorce. Jennings proceeded to pay his alimony by delivering it in pennies monthly. I may have the divorce the other way around, its been many years since I had heard that one.

He also has some with presidents, a picture with the Stanley Cup, and my favorite, one with Jordan and Barkley. Seemed like a pretty good summer job.

Cosmos goalie Shep Messing was substitute sports news guy at WNBC. After his segment, he asked anchor Sue Simmons for a date...on live TV. This was in the late 70s. I don't recall her replying and I never learned whether that date occurred. Gave it a 10 for bravery and another 10 for stupidity.

Loved Shep!!!
