Class of 2002 - decent read

Posted: 8/10/2011 5:55:15 PM

Class of 2002 a cautionary tale for today's All-Americans:

Thought this was a great quote:
"If you're ranked high, that means there's a guy that isn't ranked who's probably outworking you."

I don't endorse the furry lifestyle, but when the Bobkitten is involved things can change mighty quickly...

A great read. I am so sick of fanbases like IU and others who sit on their boards and espouse that "they only need Burger Boys" or Rivals 3 stars or some combination of the above.

The ratings services are so skewed and those fans hanging on the nuts of a high school kid by following them around AAU tourneys in their IU, DUKE, or whatever gear and hooting and hollering every time their recruit throws down a dunk and criticizing other schools recruits when they do the same as "showboats or glory seekers" should get a healthy dose of reality from this article.

There are so many factors that make a basketball career but there is no doubt that those kids who are elevated by the sc outing services and media and constantly feeding the parents , kids and handlers future dreams that may or may not be accurate or even wildly remotely possible

never argue with idiots, they bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Winter comes and asks how you spent your summer.....

The game loves and rewards those who love and reward the game
