Obviously modified considerably.
Not much to say. I'm not one for idols and the like. This man was my idol. As an athlete, I've modeled my life after his. Competition should be outrageous fun and a striving to be the very, very best that you can be. You have to put yourself out there totally. What better way than to shoot your big mouth off and set yourself up for the biggest failure of your lives. I do it all the time. Wow, do they ever stand in awe when you succeed. :))
As a person, Ali stood up for what he believed in against a tsunami of hatred. I hope that I do that for myself and more so that I would do that for a friend. That's what I learned from him.
