A few days ago, I spoke/wrote words in anger about KD's car. I was wrong. I was reacting emotionally and blaming the car for one of my favorite players getting shot again. After having thought about some of the rightfully negative responses to my ranting, I realize I was not saying what I really thought, but expressing how I felt and I didn't feel good.
Hell, I love custom cars and used to drive one myself a hundred years ago or so. Mine was stolen and never recovered. Car art is a magnificent modern art form and the artists are to be admired and commended.
In his whole life, my old coach was wrong about pretty much everything except one thing; he said "When yer mad, ya outta shuttup." He was right.
I apologize to all who were offended by my thoughtless outburst.
I like nice things, too, but have had so many things stolen that I have learned to be prudent where and how I display anything of value that I wish to keep. It shouldn't be that way, but our modern society has become that way and we have to live with that. Look at the trouble conspicuous consumption let Sean Taylor get himself into. All KD was doing was tooling along the road minding his own business. Just one of the many reasons the child bride (a mere 54) and I moved from the Metroplex to the boonies where life is simpler and not so crowded.
Tomorrow the players start reporting to TC. Tomorrow we can breathe again.
Rebirth is at hand, and hopefully, redemption.
