Where there’s smoke …

Wednesday, June 21st, 2006

… There’s fire.
I thought that by now he would have changed his mind, but after 23 years Jim “Turk” Evers has hung it up. Turk was head equipment manager for the Flyers until he walked out of the building a few days ago and said he had enough. He’s done.
