Richard Kaufman: Sport Authority

Postby Dustin Stinett » June 25th, 2012, 6:14 pm

It was brought to my attention that our very own Richard Kaufman acted as a consultant to ESPN Magazine on how the 1985 NBA Draft Lottery could have been rigged. Honestly, I never would have thought that ESPN, the NBA, and Richard Kaufman would have ever collided in one sentence, but read it for yourself at the link below (its item #8 on the list):

To quote a Yogism: "Is this deja vu all over again?" The NBA Draft Lottery is scheduled for this Thursday June 28,2012. The Commissioner seems to be in the middle of this fixed lottery controversy again as the No.1 college draft pick, Anthony Davis, of the University of Kentucky in a mock lottery drawing is said to be headed to the New Orleans Hornets.

There is a serious flaw in your statement: It presumes I can even complete a 100-yard dash.
