I've chatted with him a few times when he's around the Conroe area. I also went to Blinn and played baseball they talked about him quite often there. Dude has heart and great hustle and that was a difference maker for Miami. Its funny to hear all the whining about him being physical but most of those whining are the ones saying the miss old school basketball!

He reminds me of a joke I once heard.
An old man was sitting on a bench at the mall. A young man walked up to the bench and sat down. He had spiked hair all different colors, green, red, orange, blue, and yellow. The old man just stared.
The young man said, "What's the matter old timer, never done anything wild in your life?"
The old man replied, "Got drunk once and had sex with a parrot. I was just wondering if you were my son."

Thx for sharing Roy , I support your post 110% and am happy for Chris
That's why you should NEVER judge a book by it's cover
Chris Birdman has a persona on the court that exemplifies a physical , crazy, tatto'd thug freak. The media loves to run with this stereotype and blow it out of proportion b/c it's a topic of discussion on Sports talk shows and it helps increase viewer/listener ratings.
ESPN would never do a story on Birdman hunting, fishing, spending time with kids, and giving back to charities. In reality, he's an average Joe , just like us.
it's easy to pass judgment on people when all you hear and see on the TV is the media's side of the story. (i.e. the extortion case against Chris involving crimes vs. children which was fabricated lies). You never see the positive things Chris has done like the FreeBird Foundation where he helps underprivileged children
