I was at school and they took us to the library for a book report. I picked up a biography on Moses Malone, back when he played for the Houston Rockets.
Back at home, I would channel flip between the 7 or so channels that were available and I saw Malone playing for the 76ers on DC20 against the Washington Bullets. Being as young as I was and knowing as little as I did about the NBA, I assumed Moses was playing for a team named the Houston 76ers.
The funny part of it all was it didn’t even occur to me to root for the Bullets because, well, they didn’t have Malone.
