I saw "David Robinson not being a superstar is when I noticed something wrong with this country" this morning.
One reply was "that dude would have been a legend if he played in 1950, after world war ii."
I thought Robinson was excellent and people did mention his military service and that he was a class act. I didn't think we were less than appreciative of him. Do you guys?
Also the Spurs would go on to win a championship or two and their roster filled with a lot of "good guys" and....I don't usually even think of this. Do we "give credit" for instilling a good guy team attitude?
I suppose it's fairly normal to have more national pride during a war and less when there is not. Right?
Anywho, I thought all this was an interesting concept for discussion and figured I'd share it here. See what y'all think
