The guy doing it is from clarksdale, daddy is a lawyer, etc., etc. I doubt you will see crunchy mike or any mention of three straight egg bowls.

On ESPN.com on which this show will be based, then you are doing yourself a disservice. It is quite moving and stirs many emotions.....especially for someone like me who grew up in the delta with a very mixed bag of racial experiences....some of which I admittedly struggle with to this day. Wright is a talented writer and his story is very powerful. I am actually quite interested in how this will be brought to life on the screen. Bottom line......go read the story and then decide for yourself.

Another thing I will admit to is being terrible at linking things.....you will have to google search it on your own.
