I guess I don't understand the little jabs either. Here we have a guy that was a great player and representative for MU and is now using his degree and the skills he learned in college to become a businessman. He has a unique idea that obviously took some commitment and dedication. Isn't that a great Marquette story?

I'm with you here. The guy took a risk by leaving the game to be an entrepreneur. Should be applauded.

Let's do the math. He was paid to play basketball which provided him with the seed capital to start his own business based on patented IP. He is married to an intelligent, attractive former college athlete turned fashion model who will care for him and about him. He works out of his home rather than infesting a cube farm with thousands of other ants. Along the way he repaired the fracture between himself and his father.

So, how is this guy f ucking up?

The guy should be an example/inspiration for every MU player, not poked fun at like some Luddites earlier in this thread.

I'd say he's doing it Wright.
