Liked the article, wonder if the writer knew is a$$ from third base though, Robin Miller never would have written "Clem" Brawner, even if that's what A.J. actually said.
Back in the early 70's if Goodyear was tire testing at Phoenix International Raceway I often would cut afternoon classes in High School and go watch them test.
The guard at the turn 2 entrance to the pits knew me from sprint car racing at Manzanita and would let me drive into the pits.
One day I was in the men's room using the crapper when someone sat down in the stall next to me (turned out to be AJ). About a minute or 2 into it he uttered "Awe Crap. Have you got any paper in your stall?"
I replied yep, and tore him off a wad.
The whole point of this story is that on that day I literally got to literally shoot the "sheet" with AJ, a high point for a 17 year old kid.
