A teaching he did in the mid-70s helped me make a decision that dramatically and permanently changed my life for the better. I've always been thankful for that, even though I wasn't a big fan of his after he got so big for his britches.
And as ex-10 says, he could be very funny--especially when he wasn't being cruel in his humor.
That decision moved me to make subsequent decisions which have led me to a wonderful life. However, I am not giving him credit for anything other than the above. The rest was God's doing.
His getting caught with his pants down helped me find WayDale, my brain and, eventually, the exit door - which, by the way, didn't hit me in the arse on the way out.
hiway, I think that was just his ego. Every time I saw him play, he played quarterback for both sides. He probably thought he was so superior in that position that it just wouldn't be fair for anyone else to have to QB against him.

in the sickthpphth kork, we had a fair number of guys who could really play qb--4 or 5 I can remember for sure. Craig did not always play but when he did he did like to qb a lot. Craig was a tight end in college, he was not exactly a great qb.
One time, I was on Craig's team, playing receiver and we had not scored a touchdown yet when Craig was called away to do something. The guy who started playing qb asked me 2 plays later if I could take my man deep on the inside and I said sure, hit me on my break about 20 yards down. He hit me in stride, I scored and we went on to win (we were trailing when Craig left). Craig asked us later if we won and we told him that we had. He was fine with it but I think in later years that kind of thing might have p1ssed him off.
He sure thought he was a stud basketball player but he always seemed a bit of a ball hog. The worst on that score was G**ald W**nn, he acted like it was first and ten on the hardwood. He was dangerous and I quit playing b-ball my last year in rez cuz it was a freaking scrimmage out there, everybody driving the lane w/ their head down and shoulder lowered-yikes!!

Ha Ha Fel lcm had no game I stomped his butt many a night and once in particular I beat him with a corner shot in his face. No wonder he tried to kick me out of the sicketh corp so many times.
Honestly, I have nothing nice to say. I thought hard about it. And I do not have one even slightly nice thing to say. No story, no teaching, no nice interaction... Nothing.
As much as I do not like VP, I have a few good exchanges there, but not even a benine story of Craig. So, the answer is NO. I have nothing nice to say as I have never seen him be remotely nice.

Sometimes I miss LCM and all his crazy tirades. He went too far lots of times, but he was never boring. Can't say that about The Way of today.

Back before he took himself waaaaaay too seriously, he could tell a pretty funny story or two.

I have nothing good to say about him...I'll refrain, in this thread, from saying what I would like to.

He was a huge factor in my leaving TWI.

He was an excellent quarterback in way pick up games. I figure he had to be good since he quarterbacked for BOTH teams the day I watched.

I know it was his ego, Linda-I was being a little facetious, as it was so ridiculous.

At pfal 77 my (then) wife Mary walked into a street sign, hitting her head on the corner of it.
Lcm was walking about 20 feet behind us, and saw what happened before I did.
He immediately came forward and prayed for her.
The bump on her head did not disappear, but she was really comforted by the prayer.
After praying for her for a minute or so, he made a light hearted joke
about *walking* (or something like that), smiled, and walked away.
