 EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) - The old man wrapped him up in a bear hug and cradled his son's head in his hands, his long fingers trembling ever so slightly. John Thompson waited a lifetime for this day. But almost as quick as the hug was strong, he let go of his namesake.
"You've been complaining about the bus being rickety," he said a few moments later, making that familiar bass voice sound menacing. Pause.
"But the ride home," Thompson added, smiling widely, "is going to be good tonight."
