Exactly. It's only "no big deal" to the loyal opposition because he made it &&& because Media would not cite it. Media was only interested in Artest failing, Artest going nuts, Artest conspiring to mutiny. They wanted nothing to do with the Artest that came to be. And if Artest had went to them, hat-in-hand and canvassed for their blessing, for their empathy, promising them the story and all it's abundance should it, or, even if it did not pan out they would've used him and the it would have been vulgar and ugly. That he didn't go there is a testament to truth and honor. He had no idea he'd succeed as he did. He went right down the line, straight & true, so that when it did come to full fruition he could stand in the light and break his own soul.

I won't say it again,,,the I won't:::
