Bob Lancaster (2008)
Everyone should take a page out of the Bob Lancaster rule book. He played for the love of the game, not the win. You would never see him get mad. Never point out your errors. Always had a smile on his face. Sportsmanship was his middle name.
There were so many things that meant more than winning to him. His family was always number 1. Having drinks with the guys after the game was a close second. You could never tell by looking at him whether he won or lost that night. Every game was a win to him. Just being able to play and joke around with everyone was what he loved.
If you ever had the honor of playing with him you know this. If you didn’t get to know him you are very unfortunate. The sheer mass of people that gathered for his funeral is a testament to how one person could touch so many hearts. He truly was what BOSL is all about. The score doesn’t matter. The people of this league do.
Rest in peace. Sentiments from his best friend, Mike (Moose) Wright
