Redd tonight at UWM? 

Post#1 » by vargavpugh » Thu Feb 7, 2008 8:38 pm

Is Michael still doing a talk tonight at UWM? I can't find any information about it on the Bucks website nor on the UWM website. I just need the location and the time.

That was one of the best nights I've ever had. Mike straight shared from the heart about every aspect of his life. Say what you want about how he needs to be traded or how the Bucks are better off with him hurt, he is a true example of what being a man really is through his character, his integrity and how humble of a human being he is. He knows it's not about who you are, it's WHOSE you are.

:roll: Oh please...

Let that same 'humility' and 'character' show up in his basketball game to lead and assist to make others swith and around him better to win some basketball games...then you can come talk to me.

Not just on 'any given night.' :noway:

if you were there you would have heard him say his life isnt about basketball...it was truly something special and i guy you just had to be there to experience it...it was a side from him that i never expected to see he just got so deep and was a very touching speaker... i look at him now as not just a basket ball player any more i look at him like i do anyone else he was so down to earth and such a nice person

Save the crap for all of the Redd bashing threads. This thread is not about basketball.

I really wish I would have been able to come to this. How many people ended up coming? I've heard Redd speak once before for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. He's a great guy and has a great story. He's coming back in March? I'll have to make it to that one.

That sounds really inspirational...
I'd love to see Redd speak sometime, he really does seem like one of the true great guys in sports. He needs to come to Madison.
