I dont like that he making it about himself, but I dig what he saying.
One of the things America has going for it in regards to child rearing is that we do tell them to shoot for the stars and that anything is possible.As a teacher, one of the most heartbreaking things (for a number of reasons) is having a classroom full of boys who all want to be a professional athlete, even though none of them have ever played a single day of organized sports or have the least bit of athleticism to them at all. They also don't have the resources or support to get better.
That being said, I have made it a point never to shyt on their dreams. All I ask them to do is have a backup plan. Maybe work their asses off to get a scholarship or something and go to a school to become a sports therapist, or sports manager, or lawyer, or something. Anything.
Sadly there's no fame or recognition in there. Matter of fact, about 4 hours, I literally had a kid tell me that he would rather be the player than the owner (we were having a discussion about about Dan Gilbert and the aftermath of Lebron leaving a few years back). It's crazy, but how do you tell the truth without shytting on these kids' dreams?
i aint mad
i get it
shyt wish I had someone like Steph come to my school tho
I had to settle with Bobby Bonilla![]()
because hes making a greater point and exploring a deeper topic, while you're just trolling the internetI know. It's like, Since when did Steph Curry ever mention that he wanted to visit that school in the first place?
I could write a letter to Steph Curry too, "Aiyo, don't visit my house. Bruh."
Am I going to become an Internet sensation? No. I won't.
yeah yeah i knowhttp://www.celebritynetworth.com/articles/entertainment-articles/bobby-bonilla-baseball-contract/
Hope you soaked up some knowledge, breh![]()
So um...who does he want to come to his school to show kids what they can be in The Bay?

Successful people in other careers like doctors, lawyers, managers etc.?
Teacher acting like Steph didn't overcome any obstacles on the way to success.
is he?Lame
I never recall an athlete coming to school or any other place and telling everyone they could make the NBA. It was moreso about being great at WHATEVER you choose to do. Every kid in general doesnt have the thought of playing pro-sports anyway.
On top of this, this teacher is automtically ASSUMING Steph Curry is jaded about life and the advantages he's had. Maybe he is, but maybe he's not.
Hell, why listen to anything Obama has to say about life? Because 99.9999999999999999999% of us will never be President.
