Well I know Yau has not an Ego or doesn't par take in to many Ally-oops....To me Pro Sports, from the beginning till now has been exactly the same, you dont think ty cob or Babe ruth or Wilt didn't have Ego's or someone there with a Hanky when they sneezed......the US population gets to judge and complain, the fans get to wear the Merchandise and argue who is best....but it all started when some White Man got way to Rich and wanted to own a team.....I watch the Patriots knowing the Ego's are huge...Brady, Belicheck, big time Ego's.....but they don't hold a candle to the Krafts sitting up in the box when it comes to arrogance or Ego's....
Hey, reality is, you can make allot of money playing pro sports.....truth is, is you still have to be real, real, real real......GOOD!!!...otherwise your done.....out of 1,000 college BB players in the US, only one makes the NBA.....bottom line, If we didn't have real, real, real... rich White men This world, we wouldn't have Black guys, White Guys and or any other ethnic group with Big Bad Ego's....Playing pro sports....all in all...I enjoy the reminisce of it all....
If you can’t excel with talent, triumph with effort.
