Peter Vescey passage concerning
Rafer Alston's mother, one in which I would be remiss in failing to pass on. Background:
Jeff Van Gundy made a ludicrous statement about the efficacy of Alston 10 days ago on TV, Vescey cracked a joke about it. Geraldine Alston called Vescey around midnight to... discuss the matter.
"My husband and I just now got to read your column on line when we came home," Geraldine allowed. "While I don't agree with your assessment, I do respect your right to voice an opinion.
"Having said that, do me a favor; please e-mail your picture. We're making a print out of the column and we'd like to burn it and your picture together in effigy."
I am assuming Vescey did not rush to his computer to help out. With conciliatory spirit (and plenty of annoying Vescey moments) in mind, let's help Mrs. Alston out after the jump.
