Gotta love Andre Agassi! His father - an Iranian Olympic boxer - was domineering and pushed Andre, against his will, to succeed at all costs as a tennis champ. The new revelations are that Andre "hated" tennis! And felt so bound to his image that (in addition to indulging in crystal meth for the better part of a year) he actually had a hair weave...and his biggest fear was that his piece would fall off, exposing his glistening bald pate!
Anyway I find his story quite inspirational - he has decided to build his life and has found happiness, love and meaning. A 9th grade dropout, he is a huge education proponent, putting his money and his time behind it...among other things he sponsored a new charter school in a tough Las Vegas neighborhood which last year sent 100% of their graduates to college.
Balls to the Wall!
