Q&A: We've literally received thousands of emails asking questions about Kurt Rambis. Hopefully, this section clear up some confusion.

Q: Where did Kurt receive his superhuman abilities? (Ray, OK)

A: Great question Ray. Some people believe Kurt is a government experiment gone horribly awry. Some people believe he is the last of a fallen breed of giants that once roamed some sections of North America. Some people that he is not even human at all. One scientist has some pretty convincing research that points to a theory centering on time-travel and war involving a highly-evolved species 3,000 years in the future. Honestly Ray, we're just not sure.


Q: If Kurt Rambis is actually a physically perfect man, why does he wear glasses? (Sally, NY)

A: Well Sally, this may sound complicated, but Kurt actually sees too well. Kurt's eyes are so intense that if he failed to wear his 1957 military issued horn-rimmed glasses, people could be burned. (The best way to describe it is like ants under a magnifying glass.) There was an incident in a '74 playoff game, before Kurt used his yellow Croakie neck strap to secure the glasses, that they actually came off and singed the forearm of surprised Kevin McHale.
