On the Lap of Uncle Etan


Etan Thomas, power-forward/center for the Washington Wizards, is one of the few political activists/athletes that were so prominent during the '60's and now can't seem to be found anywhere. Etan is a real man. Lebron James says he wants to be the Muhammed Ali of this generation, but if he's gonna be half the man Ali was he should start taking lessons from Etan.

Every now and then I'm going to post a sample of Etan's poetry because it's real:

"Now I look upon my culture,
I see ballers, sure I do
Hard corers in Haute Couture, in furs
Enough to make my ancestry - stir"
