ORIGINAL: Mr. Ed RIP Keith Nord 61 Cancer Noooooooooooooooooooo Loved that dude As was said ... CLASSIC overachiever He was Thielen before Thielen I'm sure every KNow-it-all expert was saying back then that some dude from MN/ND stood no chance of making it. He made it, and then some. At least back in those days there wasn't internet, so we all had to put up with that bullshit pre-judging a guy just because of where he was from. Love it when a kid can play while everyone else says no way. If you ever get a chance to see these overachievers when they play in HS, they stand out. They are already men surrounded by kids. I got to see Kurt Knoff in high school. The athleticism of a kid who becomes a professional athlete stands out. Our HS was in the same conference as EGF. I remember his playing in our gym. He attempts to steal the ball in the backcourt.....misses and goes sliding. Gets up and catches the dribbler at mid court and steals the ball from behind. When he was a sophomore, watched him go up for a 12 baseline jumper.....defender goes up to block, Kurt shifts the ball from his right hand to left hand and swishes.
