Jerry, although not original from here, became a true L.A. native. The truest, perhaps, than any…Read More luminary in memory. Like Randy Newman, he LOVED L.A. He reflected the dichotomous nature of Angelenos -- down to earth and hip Hollywood glamour. The chants in rival arenas when the Lakers played ("Beat L.A.") simply revealed their envy of Los Angeles and an erroneous image of L.A. as purely superficial and phony. True, Buss was flamboyant and a playboy. But he was also a self-made man, rising from his austere humble upbringing in Iowa where he rummaged trash cans for phone books to use as firewood to heat the tiny home he lived in with his mother.
I was fortunate enough to meet Jerry Buss at Chasens restaurant where I was celebrating my mom and dad's anniversary. I was shocked when mom walked right up to his table and introduced herself as his mother's hair stylist. I had no idea. "Is this your granddaughter?" she asked. No mom, she wasn't. And I hadn't the heart to inform mom of Buss's lifestyle.
We can only hope any sibling rivalry amongst the Buss children will be put to rest in the interest of Los Angeles ... and to honor the memory of the greatest owner in sports franchise history.

Truly a nice man, very down to earth, did not flaunt his wealth. I was a news photographer covering…Read More the LA` sports scene, when Buss purchased the JKC sports domain we all asked who is this guy (none of us in the media had ever heard of him)?
He turned out be a blessing to the LA sports scene, he was approachable, taking time to converse with you and was always humble. Just a plain nice man. Unlike Cook he was always present at his teams games and did not sit in the owners box but among the ordinary fans. RIP Dr Buss your legacy will remain long after any of us have departed

Mr. Bokat, you are a class act! Thank you for doing right by this hard working team, a much-improved…Read More CHS football program and most of all, Coach Pierce and the dedicated and selfless coaching staff he has built. They deserve to hear these uplifting words going into Friday's Homecoming game, which for many will be the last time they ever play football.
And while they may not be taking with them the winning culture of some other football programs, I think they are taking something far more valuable – life lessons taught by a Coach that truly cared – not just about the football player but the individual. At the end of the day, that’s the real prize. After all, you can’t take the scoreboard with you as you enter the real world.
I shared your article with other parents who have kids that play for the Coyotes. Here are a couple of responses I received:
"It was an excellent article and it’s nice to know that someone sees all the hard work Coach Christian and his staff have put in to try and turn this program around."
"Amazing and committed leader!! Christian is a disciple of God :)"
So, I thank you.
Regards,
A Coyote Varsity FB Mom
