The Washington Generals have long been one of my favorite topics, in large part because of the wonderful man who founded them. I wrote numerous times about Red Klotz, who died a year ago.

The Generals were his legacy, a proud team that almost never won, an underdog just about everyone rooted against, a team that measured its worth how hard people laughed when their pants were pulled down.
