Comments on: The Fine Line Between Greed and Competition http://zrdavis.com/the-fine-line-between-greed-and-competition/ ~ the 1st amendment gone terribly wrong ~ Mon, 07 May 2012 17:33:37 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Jack Borgo http://zrdavis.com/the-fine-line-between-greed-and-competition/comment-page-1/#comment-231 Jack Borgo Fri, 22 Jan 2010 01:02:27 +0000 http://zrdavis.com/?p=595#comment-231 Great Post. I recently saw an "E60" profile in Dwayne Wade where he recounted that he practiced basketball between 35-40 hours a week while attending school. This time, coupled with the fact that his mother was a drug addict, basically eliminated his childhood. The care-free, innocent lives that many of us enjoy from birth through college is non-existent for these athletes. Their incredible salaries allows them the luxury to enjoy their post-sport lives in a manner similar to our childhoods. If you want to make this much money, it takes sacrifice and dedication. If you don't believe me go to Robbins, Illinois, D-Wades hometown (oh and don't wear blue or red) and see for yourself. Great Post.

Other than that, I think you have an argument here, besides the whole hockey comment. What’s this “and occasionally hockey” business?
