Wilt Chamberlain
It was a different sexual situation going on than it is in the '80s and '90s, and I did a very poor job of describing that.
Wilt Chamberlain

Wilt Chamberlain
Monogamy is the true path to happiness.
Wilt Chamberlain

Wilt Chamberlain
Meadowlark was the most sensational, awesome, incredible basketball player I've ever seen.
Wilt Chamberlain

Wilt Chamberlain
