According to Boston Globe, Ray Williams — great Knick basketball player of the late seventies — is now homeless and living in his 1992 Buick. http://tinyurl.com/3ys6lje.

Spotted his car immediately, since I drive the same car — mine a 1995 Buick Roadmaster. Falling apart at the seams; just commented today it is one of the worst designed cars in history; a big floating hulk of metal. The pieces constantly fall off of GM cars — the chrome pieces on the exterior, interior pieces, mirrors, etc. The engine leaks oil; the gas tank had to be replaced and I still always smell gas; the fender’s falling off. God damn engine though — Northstar V8 — is magnificent. Most powerful engine I’ve ever had in a car. Phenomenal power.

I loved watching Ray Williams play in his prime and I hope that he can get a job with the Knicks. Seems like there should be a way, with a franchise that makes so much money, to have Ray Williams work for them in some way..
