1.0 out of 5 stars Common Man, March 27, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Embracing the Legend: Jim Harrick Revives the UCLA Mystique (Hardcover)
What I can't really construe is how an individual with so much knowledge and love for the game of basketball, be it in Los Angeles, Rhode Island, or Georgia, would have the stupidity and ignorance for the morality of life? How can an individual be blessed with so much greatness in teaching kids the essence of one sport up and turn his back on young men who need a sense of integrity and direction in life for the next 50 years after their career in sports has ended? It would be absolutely hypocritical for us to say that we are all Saints...but to continuously try and outfox the world and disregard our mistakes and values in life is merely capital punishment! I hope one day in the near future THE COACH can sit back and see that what is the most valuable ingredient in this short period of life is not the fame and fortune but the decency to be honest with oneself and to others.
