The Jazzmen we miss the most

The most amazing accomplishment that I have ever seen is how former Jazzman David Benoit ACTUALLY was nominated for 3 Grammy awards for playing Jazz Music. I don't understand how this isn't talked about more. Simply Outstanding!
I think what's even more amazing is how he miraculously tranformed himself from a 6'8" black man into a 63 year old, 5'10" white guy? How'd he do that?

UB the GOAT
Agreed.

Again, like I've said on the "minimal accomplishments for the Jazz" thread, as Jazz's season draws near, I expect many more posters to make a comeback. Why not ECTYA?.. Why not MK11?.. Why not jazzyapma?.. Why not Tarkanian?... Why not Çakar?..

The Delta center lighting will easily add nine inches to you from those looking from the 10th row back. I once stood next to John Stockton without his stage makeup and he was 4 foot three in shoes. True Story! Most of his fancy passes were Leprechaun magic.
 
Stifle's post leads me to believe there has got to be more.

He had a brutal childhood being raised by the Fratellis. Fortunately, with the friendship he made with Chunk and the basketball training he was able to acquire paid for by the Pirate ship loot, he was able to make something of himself, before his injury (which eventually turned into Hayward.)
 
Agreed.

Don't forget aybars. But let's hope sepanol doesn't come back ;)
 
And he's white. That's two strikes right there. Nope, the cleft palate is what I'm talking about. Guy must have been teased since Day 1. I know I'd just want to hide in my room if that were me.
I'm sure he's a hero among the cleft palate community (as he should be). I wonder if he'd list his lip among the greatest challenges he's overcome. A friend of mine growing up had a cleft palate. While I'm sure that every person he ever met has noticed it, he never let it effect his life, and as far as I can tell it hasn't.
