Wow. He made the little ball go through the little hoop. He is my hero. I wonder what kind of employment opportunities that skill opens up?


Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?

Putting that little ball through that little hoop during impossible situations? HHmm..maybe that would be a good question for Jordan or Kareem or even Shaq. Bet they would know the answer.

They probably would. However, I wonder if the stats that tell us how many high school and college kids dreaming of making it to the pros who actually make it would validate the fact that so many ignore their education to reach that almost unattainable dream.
