Hey Blake,

I think the best part of sports is the passion involved, so I wrote an opinionated piece on why I think a perfect athlete is capable of crying, both win or lose. I’d love for you to check it out and let me know what you think. If you’re too busy, no worries.

Thanks, as always, for the support! It’s much appreciated ☺

Oh, and I think when you guys get Bynum back, the trophy is the Lakers to lose.

Amen! It would definitely be monumental in terms of Yao's legacy. It's nice to know that there are Lakers' fans rooting for Yao :)

Sadly, I think you're right. Hopefully, one day, our nation can once and for all look beyond race and color. We've made some strides, but there's still plenty to be made. Thanks again for your thoughtful comment, Blake.

Blake, thanks so much for taking a look at it! I'm glad you liked it.
You're totally right, and that was one of the reasons I decided to write this. Why can't he be a role model for so many people?

Thanks again :)

Hey Blake,

Yao Ming has done so much for the game of basketball, that I felt compelled to write a tribute. I'd love for you to take a look and let me know what you think! Again, I hope my passion comes through and it's a good read.
