    sorry no pics. I saw Othella (my fella) Harrington running the track around Rice U yesterday afternoon. We were running in opposite directions, and I didn't recognize him til just as we passed each other. He was looking at me funny, probably cuz I kept staring at him the whole time trying to remember who he was.

    He looks alot slimmer than what he does on the television set.

    Not as cool as when I caught Rodney McCray takin a dump at Cafe Express, but still.....

    Sounds like you were running in the wrong direction....

    Thats pretty cool.....A friend of mine from church is Othella's Personal Trainer. He trained me for a while, and he definitely believes in running :)

    Its funny that he was such a steal. When Othella came out of High School, he and Jason Kidd were the number one recruits in the country. Sports Illustrated did an article on both of them. Their careers turned out so differently.

    Othella my fella must love running. I saw him 5 years ago running on the track at Stratford High School. That was a few months after he got traded for Francis. He was disappointed back then. He said he really loves Houston. Maybe we can get him back sometime.
