Sixers Pierre Jackson Beats The Odds
Gusto.
Back in my youth, it was what we pursued. “Go for the gusto!” was a popular marketing slogan. The meaning of the word is enthusiasm, delight, relish, zest, spirit, fervor. It historical meaning also included artistic style. The 2015 meaning of the word should be Pierre “Pappy Jack” Jackson. He’s worked hard to be noticed, to get the attention of the NBA, and the 76ers. He’s had to face adversity – first in the fact that he is 5’10” and 180 pounds, which is quite average on the streets of Philadelphia.
