It certainly is a huge step in the right direction.Saul Wisniahttp://saulwisnia.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596002576062280724.post-31171923204927296662012-08-23T18:49:26.522-04:002012-08-23T18:49:26.522-04:00Nancy is correct.

I don't remember that story about Millar -- I think there was another video of a player lip-syncing and dancing to a song as a teenager that they played at games and people sang along.
