Manute Bol. I know he used to play for the Wizards but he was well before my time, I knew him more for being a good humanitarian and trying to help out Sudan. budw38 06-19-2010, 06:33 PM R.I.P.

Yes he did fight for freedom in Sudan , spent millions of his own $$$ , very brave man ..... R.I.P. skinsfan_nn 06-19-2010, 06:38 PM Manute was drafted by the Bullets back in 1985. I remember when Muggsy was drafted a few years later you had a gentle giant (7'7") and a midget (5' nuthin) what a combo in Washington. Yes he did a lot of out reach work to help his homeland and the local community. Kidney disease is just horrible. R.I.P. Manute Bol.

A truly good man. tryfuhl 06-20-2010, 12:25 AM RIP.. shame that this all happened when he was doing the humanitarian work in Africa (if I'm recalling how the issues came about correctly) CooleyAsCanBe 06-20-2010, 12:47 AM I loved Manute as a player and was even more impressed with him as a person. Little did I know that I also quote him regularly when I make a mistake playing ball. Turn out he coined the phrase "My Bad."
