Former Sacramento King Wayman Tisdale has lost his two year battle with cancer, and died this morning at age 44. His smile was as wide as the ocean, and he was one of those people that made others feel good in his presence. I recall sitting in a crowded staff meeting in our conference room. For some reason, Wayman was in the lobby on other business, and was about to leave. As he spots a large bowl of Doritos in the center of our conference table, he strides in, unannounced.... grabs a huge handful, smiles and says..."Don't mind if I do!"... and broke the place up. That's the Wayman I'll always remember. Rest in peace young man.
