Ted died a few days ago. I posted bits from the interview I conducted with him.

ND, I’d love to see what you learned from Ted. Thank you for sharing.

And, Tony…

My gratitude for this gem! Look this one up, baseBRAWL fans. That photo in the vintage article of Ted sliding, spikes HIGH? He was out for blood. Guaranteed, that would jog anyone’s memory (while making Mrs. Beard blush)!

I can post the interview if you would like, as he gave glimpses of some highlights of his career.
