OK, I see where you're coming from. However I will say this though, and PLEASE don't take this as a personal attack towards you because it's not. Just in my experiences with talking to people at work and through my career a lot of people REALLY dislike the fact that a lot of people like Iverson are rich because they think he's a punk. etc. etc. It's mostly middle class white men because they feel they're more intelligent, they feel they've worked harder and here's a guy who they feel has been "gifted" is rich because he can play basketball. They don't like that fact and they dislike him because of it. I don't begrudge anyone like that at all.

Like I said, I don't think that's you because you could be a black man for all I know. Just something you said reminded of what I debate with people at work when we're talking basketball. So as I said, I'm NOT attacking you so please don't take it that way.
