Around SBN: NFL Players Ready To Welcome Gay Teammate

This is a pretty cool old school ad. Why? Two reasons: it focuses on players that work hard rather than flashy dunks and secondly (and most importantly) it features Buck Williams!

you guys see the part where Buck pulls down the Goggles...

I miss Buck and his goggles, it seemed like everytime the goggles got pulled down a can of woop @$$ gets opened somewhere.

the strange thing to me about that commercial being from '87

was that Buck didn’t start wearing goggles until ’90, when he was hit in the eye during the playoffs (I can still see him writhing in pain on the floor, holding his face…)

Kareem and Worthy were wearing goggles, earlier in the decade

When reached 40 years of following Portland basketball you have, be as passionate of the Trail Blazers you will not!

In fact, Buck doesn't wear goggles in this ad.

Moses Malone is the one with the goggles (grey top). Buck is the one without the goggles in the blue top. You correctly stated that he wasn’t wearing them at this point of his career.

Shooting percentages as they apply to certain areas of the court.  Note who one of the best shooters in the NBA from the wing is.  Check out the guy dominating under the hoop as well.  Pretty impressive for a 6'9'' guy.
