Where can one read Toms old Popwatch articles?

I'm no prude, but the drunk driving stuff in that story has always failed to jibe with the rest of Tom's public persona.

my thoughts exactly.  however, i admit, as a writer myself, of exaggerating a number of nuances, etc. for the sake of laughs or dramatic effect or both in a non-fiction essay/story.  nothing is too ridiculous to consider when you don't know if it's true or not.

I want the article on Popa Roach!

(Am I mistaken in remembering this as the one where Popa Roach plays some winded and half-assed basketball against some fans?)

Correct. Walt Frazier makes an appearance too (a far less half assed effort. or maybe much more whole assed, depending on your POV)

Also, if I remember correctly, he couldn't even work in the Jim Beam angle because the article was for a kids' magazine. I would love to read this and see all of the stuff between the lines.

i don't know where to find the article,  but here's the commemorative t-shirt. it's sleeveless and extra large, in true rock-n-jock style.

I love that the e-store selling it is called TREASURED TEES. I'm gonna save up for that Jim Beam shirt, right after I buy the PAUL TSONGAS ARENA tee.

Did they steal the colors for that shirt off of some old Nike Agassi's?
