The waiting bs that sports people feel they have to do may be the most ridiculous thing that is ingrained in our sports culture. I don't understand why sports people think things like jersey retirements and hall of fame enshrinement need so much time. Can people not recognize greatness while they are watching it? I feel like the greatness of these players are diminished over time. When they put Dick Knotsman's number up there, I didn't know who in the hell that was, and frankly many people who enjoyed him were dead. I mean I see his numbers and can recognize he was a great rebounder but other than that, his number whatever it is, means nothing to me.
I have had two kids and one them has started school since Beasley left, what the hell are we waiting on? Hasn't Durant's jersey been retired for like 4 years now?
