When I read the pilot for Married with Children, it just reminded me of my Uncle Joe… just a self-deprecating kind of guy. Hed come home from work, and the wife would maybe say I ran over the dog this morning in the driveway. And he would say Fine, whats for dinner? – Ed ONeill

The pro athlete is a sad tale. He signs a big contract and thinks hes set for life. I didnt think I was set for life, and I dont now. As athletes, we are important, celebrities, in demand and rich.
