It's odd what comes up some nights.
Tonight, a conversation on egotisitical athletes. Now it's one thing to have an ego once you make it to the top and establish yourself. It's another to believe you're the next BIG THING before you're even drafted.
Believe me, guys, it doesn't matter that you were that much better than everyone else. Until you reach the top, you probably won't find many people at your level. There will be people below your level. But they're all there for the same shot.
Once you make the big time though, the gap narrows quite a bit. It's at this point your ability matters. After years of coasting, you need to turn it on. Can you live up to the hype? Or, will you be yet another to buy into your hype so much that you become a footnote in history?
So what's it going to be? Hall of Fame, or Where Are They Now?
