The Patron Saint of Basketball

This blog is dedicated to the "Admiral" David Robinson big man emeritus of the San Antonio Spurs. Not only was he a great basketball player, he is after all the most under rated big man in the history of the game.
David Robinson was also a great humanitarian as well. He founded the Carver Academy in San Antonio which is a school dedicated to serving under previlidged youth in the Alamo City. Tutition is completely free if you get in. Robinson was the games greatest citizen he won the NBA's Citizenship award twice and it is now named in his honor.
In a day and age where athletes are more frequently found in the pages of the police blotter it is refreshing to see that genuinely good people can still get ahead. This is true of the Admiral and his protege Tim Duncan.
That is all for now.
Seraph
