A note from David Feherty: With all that’s going on at the moment, I was reminded of this. People often ask me what is my favorite interview, and I always come back to the great Bill Russell. When I shook his hand I knew I was in the presence of greatness. I still keep in touch with Russ, and love him very much. I wish more people of all colors were like him, he has grace, wisdom and kindness like no one else I have ever met. Here’s an excerpt from 8 years ago that will always be special to me.
