It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye
They said I wasn’t fit.
They said I was too slow.
A turnover machine.
A defensive liability.
Only good at scoring goals.
Selfish.
Hard to manage.
Complicated.
Infuriating.
A black hole.
A bad teammate.
Too old.
And my personal favorite….
The weirdest world-class athlete ever.
