In the article I mentioned the controversial decision made in 1995 to "retire" the Washington Generals that lasted until 2007. What I have since found out, is that the New York Nationals have a history in basketball and against the Globetrotters that spans well before those 12 years.
Starting sometime before World War I the original New York Nationals were one of the many barnstorming teams of early basketball. They toured in the 20's mainly around the mid-west. But it was in the 30's that Abe Saperstein brought them back as one of several attempts to start a non-white team. None of these traveling all white teams proved to have anywhere near the success of the Globetrotters however.
Saperstein did briefly revive the squad in the post World War II era occasionally pitting them against the Globetrotters.
The name made a much bigger comback in the late 60's and early 70's when they would play the international Globetrotters squad, while the Generals (then recycling between the Washington Generals, Boston Shamrocks, New Jersey Red's, etc.) would play the main squad led by Medowlark Lemon and Curly Neal. Much like the Generals many aliases of the time, this was part of the same team as the Washington Generals, just a name change to give the illusion of the Trotters facing off against more teams.

It is likely due to this history that when the puzzling decision to retire the Washington Generals was made, that the New York Nationals was the "new" name that they settled on. But I think we can all agree the return to the Washington Generals name was inevitable sooner or later.
I personally remember the first time I saw the Globetrotters play the New York Nationals. Even though you knew it was the same team it just never felt the same. The Globetrotters opponents are the Washington Generals. Seeing another name, and another color besides the Green and Gold facing off against them just never felt the same. In the hearts of the fans and players the Globetrotters opponents will always be the Washington Generals. A truth it seems even the Globetrotter organisation eventually realized.
My grandfather was a player and player manager on the new york nationals from 1907 through 1915. They toured the midwest during those years. If they won the game they were paid $5.00 and if they lose $3.00. They won 90% of their games. Cav711@bellsouth.net

ReplyDeleteI'm here to testify about what DR. OYAGU did for me. I have been suffering from (GENITAL HERPES VIRUS) disease for the past 2 years and had constant pain and inching, especially in my private part. During the first year, I had faith in God that i would be cured someday. This disease started circulating all over my body and I have been taking treatment from my doctor, few weeks ago I came across a testimony of Shayla Bosschart on the internet testifying about a Man called DR. OYAGU on how he cured her from 7 years HSV 2. And she also gave the email address of this man, advise anybody to contact him for help on any kind of diseases that he would be of help, so I emailed him telling him about my (HSV 2) he told me not to worry that I was going to be cured!! Well, I never doubted him I have faith he can cure me too,, DR. OYAGU prepared and sent me Healing Soap, roots and herbs which I took. In the first one week, I started experiencing changes all over me, after two weeks of using his Roots/ Herbs, Oil and Soap, I was totally cured. no more inching , pain on me anymore as DR. OYAGU assured me. After some time I went to my doctor to do another test behold the result came out negative. So friends my advise is if you have such disease or know anyone who suffers from it or any other disease like HPV, HBV, HIV, ALS, HBP, CANCER etc. you can contact DR. OYAGU for help via email} oyaguherbalhome@gmail.com visit his website https://oyaguspellcaster.wixsite.com/oyaguherbalhome whatsapp him through his mobile} +2348101755322. , Thanks once again DR.

ReplyDeleteI am summer jessic from USA. I was having serious relationship problems with my lover and it had resulted in her moving out to her friend’s apartment. Everything got worse because she started going to bars and strip clubs frequently with her friend, getting drunk and passing out. She always threatens me on phone whenever I call her because of all the bad advises that her friend has given her. I really love her and we had been dating for 4 years which gave us a beautiful daughter. I had also lost a lot of money on therapists until I was introduced to DR Aluya a friend whom he helped to marry her childhood girlfriend; this gave me total confidence and strength to get her back. I did all he asked and after 28 hours my girlfriend called me and rushed back home, things just changed between us emotionally. She has a job and stopped drinking and keeping irrelevant friends. It’s a miracle I never believed was possible because I had lost all hope until I found DR Aluya. So that’s why I promised to share my testimony all over the universe. All thanks goes to DR Aluya for the excessive work that he has done for me. Below is the email address in situation you are undergoing a heart break, and I assure you that as he has done mine for me, he will definitely help you too. you can contact him via:email:{ aluya.48hoursspelltemple@gmail.com } or WhatsApp Him. +2348110493039 also contact Him through his website: https://

ReplyDeleteI am excited to share this testimony, I was 3 years ago diagnosed with Herpes virus . My medical condition was heartbroken because it was causing me so many our brakes, I was subjected to different medications by my medical doctor just to control the outbreaks. Despite my visit to. several doctors my health wasn’t getting better, all they could say is for me to stay on the treatment. At the verge .of giving up, I went to the internet to search for a treatment on my own at least. But I found a cure instead. On the internet, I read a testimony of a lady who had herpes. She shared an e-mail address of the Doctor. Luckily everything seemed to be okay after I took the Herbal Medicine. I wish I could say that’s the end of it because I haven’t had any symptoms since then. Do not expose yourself to more danger, use a herbal remedy that is safe and effective.

After two weeks of taking the herbal cure, I went to my doctor for a checkup and my result showed Negative and my doctor told me that there is no trace of herpes in my body and the virus is completely gone from my body.

ReplyDeleteIt's a pleasure for me to write this testimony about how I got my Genital Herpes cured a month ago. I have been reading so many comments of some people who were cured from various diseases by Dr. Oliha, but I never believed them. I was hurt and depressed, I was too curious and wanted to try Dr.Oliha, then I contacted him through his email ( oliha.miraclemedicine@gmail.com ) when I contacted him, he assured me 100% that he will heal me, i pleaded with him to help me out. My treatment was a great success, he healed me just as he promised. He sent me his medication and asked me to go for a check up after 14 days of taking the medication. I agreed with him and I took his medication and went for a check up, to my greatest surprise my result was negative after the treatment, i am really happy that I am cured and healthy again. I have waited for 3weeks to be very sure I was completely healed before writing this testimony. I did another blood test one week ago and it was still Herpes negative. So I guess it's time I recommend that anyone going through Herpes HSV-1 or HSV-2, HIV, HPV, Hepatitis B, Diabetes, Cancer should reach him through his Email oliha.miraclemedicine@gmail.com OR add him on whatsapp +2349038382931.
