Posted by: Graylon (g_dunc@hotmail.com) on Wed Oct 8 20:13:48 2008


> reading the CHICAGO TRIBUNE today.. a story about RYAN HOWARD.. in it RYAB speaks of aout how his father marched with DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING JR in the 60's..but he also felt it VERY important to impress upon RYAN the lessons about the struggles, trials, & tribulations they went through as a family that made them what aer today..

> who gets it:
> no matter what your your name or how big your paycheck.. EVERYONE CAN IMPROVE... only those that realize this WILL improve.. all others by the very fact they do not improve will slide backward..until they are out of the league.


We don't rebut your analysis because we think they are wonderful. We rebut your analysis because it is just BAD.

Funny Ryan Howard doesn't hit the way you would want him to. They do strive to improve, but they try to improve on what makes since. If they didn't want to improvr they wouldn't practice everyday.
