I’ll never forget when Nick Nolte said the following lines in Blue Chips.
Someplace in America right now there’s some 1 0-year-old kid. He’s out there on that playground And he’s playing. He’s dribbling between his legs. He’s going left. He’s going right. He’s already above the rim. He’s stuffing it home. You know what’s gonna happen to this kid? Five minutes from now he’s gonna be surrounded by agents and corporate sponsors and coaches l mean. people like mejust drooling over this kid because he holds our future employment in his hands.
