My Unsung Hero's

[spursince#99]

To the most underappreciated team to ever step foot on the court. A team that showed class and was never afraid of the big markets. Much Love to the all time great original big 3. When it was going bad, they hated on us, but when it was at its peak, they had no choice but to respect us. To Ginobili, Duncan, and Tony, I Love you guys. I liked it when this team showed much poise on the floor, while not being able to tell whether their up 20 or down. They embraced the fact that the media never liked them because they weren't flashy. They really were a great example of a true dynasty who represented the old fashioned model of how the league used to be. You guys are still my Unsung Hero's and i will ride and die for you guys no matter what. You guys mean alot to me and i will forever appreciate you and you guys will be dear to me forever. You guys will forever be eternal to the league. I Love You guys but i think its time to just sit back and reminisce over the past. I loved watching you guys play and everytime you played i was on the edge of my seat whether it was a blowout or we were in a close game. I was always amped up in games when i watched and as much as i wanted to give up on this team at times my heart wouldn't let me. I could never get amped up for other teams and still cant because they werent my team...but never forget you guys. We Peak Together, We Fall Together...

Much Love to a team that i truly loved...

Am I the only one that'll cry when this series ends regardless of the outcome? I honestly believe this is our last chance and we're right here. I'll either cry tears of joy or tears of sadness. This is to the former

it'll really be helpful if you could break it up to a few paragraphs. that's one big, block of text.

Seriously... when did it become standard to use 's to mean plural? I see it everywhere, even on signs at restaurants.

Sorry, but grown men who never worked a day in their lives making millions with no real education and no real innovation, for playing a child's game, there's nothing heroic about that.

The person who donated the lungs to the 10 year old girl, that's heroic, at least in reference.

Tim finished College though

Yeah, psychology.

[100%duncan]

Yeah, psychology.

Still real and legit education imho.

Yeah, BA degrees in psych are raking it in.

Certainly helped Tim all throughout his career.

Not really. His poise and skill set helped him, but you don't become Hannibal Lecter type mentalist with a BA in psych.

Regardless, my point was that they will all retire multimillionaires and never had to do anything remotely related to their education, and they mostly didn't get an education that would support them anyhow.

For example,

The National Association of Colleges and Employers reported in its Fall 2010 Salary Survey that psychology majors with a bachelor's degree could expect a starting salary of between $25,000 and $37,000. The amount for any particular individual will depend on what industry he finds a job in, his overall experience in the field and the location of the job.

You can make that much working at HEB without a degree.

So when I say "no real education" I mean they didn't toil away at the books to get a CPA or CE or anything remotely related to that. So "heroic" then does not describe these guys.

And yeah, though money pretty means everything to this world now, you got a point but Tim still could've gotten a decent job. Unlike 90% of players today who pretty much rely on basketball tbh. It's like without Basketball and swimming, if he didn't decide to ball, he still had a fallback.

And I think it's unfair, rather remotely, to not call the "heros" though. For me and I think most of sports fans, atleast they are, in the basketball world and even in the Sports world in general.

You just crushed my dreams. I'm going to school for Psychology but I plan on going further than just a BA though.
