I wish him luck that he finds some balance in his life...
Sorry boss, gotta disagree on this one. Another overpaid, pampered, self centered, self serving athelete who couldn't cut it in the fantasy world of professional sports today. Let him see what the real world is all about. Even with atheletes I like and admire for their outstanding personal qualities, they are all overpaid. Their entertainment value is overrated. And they are paid based on the entertainment value, not the athletic value. I can't stand TO and his act, but they have been allowed to evolve, even been nurtured by leagues like the NFL. NBA had Rodman, who was probably more entertaining and even more of a freak show. Hell, we might as well bring in Michael Jackson and have a party...Can anyone on this site even fathom what it would be like to get one of their in season paychecks? And we wonder why it's such a struggle to get good employees, and raise our children when these entertainers are held up as "role models" to a large portion of our society....... TO doesn't have the nads, nor could he actually not screw something up.....
