Thanks, Kid

Adios, Senor (Senior) Junior

Let us take a brief respite from our wall-to-wall coverage of the 1979 NBA Finals and bid a fond farewell to another Seattle sports legend, George Kenneth Griffey Jr.

Now, I'm the last person amongst the Supersonicsoul crew who should write anything (well, ever!), least of all about the impact Junior's had on our city and our generation of sports fans. Instead, I'll recycle this image I painted when he came back in '09 and just say: Thanks, Junior.

KC meets KD this afternoon

Kevin Durant talks to  Kevin Calabro on his ESPN radio show (streaming live on the interwebs or on 710 AM in Seattle) at 3:30 pm today. Just like old times (sigh . . . ).
