The Wade Revolution.....



Another great read to share with you all: http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=jackson/070423&lpos=spotlight&lid=tab5pos1

Now I am biased some, an MU grad who did have the chance to meet Dwyane once on campus while in school (probably before anyone new who he was) but this cat is more than any previous baller you want to compare him to. He has already won a title, and won it by taking over 3 straight games against Dallas. He has All-Star games, endorsements that pay him 4 times what he earns for 82 games a year, and a personality that only Tiger Woods could rival.

Dwyane is simply special, the kind of guy you would trust your kids with the first day you met him. Dwyane's ability on the hardwood is impeccable....on the same level with the greats today and yesterday, and his accomplishments will continue to pile up.

The fact that he takes everything farther is what makes him special. He really does seem to care about 'everything' else in life away from hoops. He really appears to give a damn about kids, family, commitment, and the truly valued things in life.

I am not sure if Dwyane will ever win a Nobel Prize, or even another championship...but you can count on that fact that his mark on the world will be made...and it will be deep enough to see for decades after he moves on to something bigger and better....

Keep it up Dwyane...I will be rooting for you the whole way!
