Rick Santorum's Wife Sued Doctor For $500,000 In 1999
I try to be modest about my YouTube finds. Mostly because anyone with enough time on their hands could turn them up. But this one has me feeling like a master in my field: Darius "Myles" visiting a Black Studies class at Portland's
Grant High School.
It's not like the once-promising Miles, who these days surfaces mostly only as a punchline, says much of anything. We hear that he took up basketball after spending a year in juvy at age eleven, his wife has "like five degrees," and he's become a fan of black history as he's aged. But there are so many small details to savor here. Of all the Blazers, why get Miles to come speak to the kids? How could these kids be this blase about an NBA millionaire in their midst? How does he go the entire clip without imparting any guidance of any kind?
I have a friend who knew Miles through a mutual friend back in his AAU days. She described him as "really polite and shy, but impossible to understand." The couple of times Miles came by her house, he would eat whatever potato chips were around and try and hide in the corner. Glad to see that some things never change all that much.
