They were in ZBT at Miami.

Skip was my dad’s fraternity brother at UM and a friend of mine played for him at LSU. Skip would’ve been great for us.

Reisler Brothers on the 400 block of Washington Ave I think. I used to get sneakers there as a kid.

I remember the store absolutely. Ali would train at the 5th Street gym with Angelo Dundee.

Wow!!! As a kid I shopped with my parents there and Dorwin’s. Wasn’t there a Mustang II as well? I’m getting old so these memories of mine aren’t always perfect.

I loved Kooch. He was entertaining.

Kooch was from Lowell, MA. I looked desperately for a photo but there isnt one. Kooch would've been celebrated on here if there were videos of the man doing his routine in PE. The savages on here would love the dude.

You were from Romania? Vlad the Impaler!

I think Peter was his older brother. I definitely had Tarsey.

Yes, you understand it. I was in one so I thought I'd ask.

Jeez he died young at 69. He was a lean mean machine. Did he smoke? Matador, were you in the Lords or Royal Palm? Barak wasn't around in your day.

Tarsey Kouchalakos - the legend himself and master of the Vulcan nerve pinch. I never graduated from Kooch and lucked out with Coach Friedman. It was all Kooch.

LMAO! Yeah... We had clogs back then. Got em at Eskil's in the Grove.

RVA just wants peace.

That My Pi fight was legendary. It was ahead of me but I remember hearing about it and i think Figaros too. I saw my friend do pretty well against some NMB goons at Loehmann's once though Beach kids had to tread carefully there. I think NMB hated North Miami even more. Stuff happens so...

I remember My Pi well. It was over on 163rd and Sunny Isles. That overpass probably wiped it out.

I knew Beach kids you probably knew and some NMB kids too. I was 3 years behind you so you were probably in gifted at North Beach with Ms. Feller or Mr. Boyle in 5th and 6th grade when i was in 2nd and 3rd grade.

I knew Zamora's younger brother Manny Zamora when I was at North Beach. He was 2 years behind me and used to play at Polo Park too. I remember that whole TV Violence defense and Ellis Rubin. If you were living in Skylake I guess you went to NMB. I had a few friends there and at North Miami...

I don't know Mickey Rourke. The coach was a short, lean, white haired, bronze skinned, Greek barking dude who was rumoured to have lost a nut in the Korean War and that's what made him so brutal. I later confirmed with a relative of his who I met when I was in my 30's that the lost a nut in...

DUDE!!!! Kooch used to butcher my name and give me the vulcan neck pinch. He would dress in all white and sit on that bench under the tree and berate us as we ran laps.
