Pretty cool story and kudos to Popeye Jones for being a Dad who is willing to go with the flow...Which sport do you see these guys getting into? Turns out, it's not basketball.

He had a certain cache in being Popeye Jones. He was a 6-foot-8, a power forward, not a superstar but known enough to be recognized wherever he went.
Too easy.

The name Popeye is so very fitting.

Great guy from what I've read but he certainly has some very unique expressions. I remember I was watching live during that game and could have sworn the guy had to have been having a stroke.
