I bleed and breathe Hawks. Even when I played for other teams I felt funny, because I was a Hawk.
Like I said, when you have to play against a great player every night, that defines who you are if you can compete on that same level night in and night out.
But I think role models also start in the home with your parents.
And I really believe that. Asthma is NOT a disability!
I used slam dunking as a tool for intimidation.
First off, do everything they can to give their kids the opportunities to play sports; asthma is not a deterrent to playing sports.
