I remember Mr.Sonny Boy, from the ball diamond days, BROUTONVILLE BOYS WAS NO JOKE!! ANY OF THEM COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN PRO...I REMEMBER HIS UNCLE WAS THIER COUCH ( CLEO) and he got upset with him and said, " I ain't studying you blind Rabbit! Which at the time I thought was pretty funny... NOT! I got in trouble for being in grown folks business!!! But he always thought about the kids in the neighborhood..
