The problem with hiring Karl as a coach is that we'll need to add a translator to the payroll.
I doubt they can find someone who is fluent in "Malone"
That said! The man is worth listening too. All of you folks who feel he is making things up as part of a vendetta or from injured pride or just from malice, well, a lot of people
never did "get" Karl Malone. Too easy to ridicule because of the way he speaks. If you can't see the honesty in what he says, if you dismiss his loyalty to the team, if you are
judging him on a few mistakes he made in life (everyone makes them, even you, even me). At just about any point in Karl's career he could of left Utah and went big city and made even more money
in the process. His reputation would of been greater, and revered much more widely. Yet, he did not. I once heard him say in a radio interview about 4-5 years into his career that he
did not care about nor want more money than the Jazz were giving him. Because if he couldn't take care of his family, their children and their children's children on that much money then he
would be a fool and no amount of money would change that. That folks, is truth and wisdom. Karl (and John) were the best things that ever happened to this franchise, or ever will happen.
His total respect for John and what John did for him is evident anytime John's name comes up.
Anyone find anything to criticize about the things he said about our young players? My wish is each and every one of them has the chance to hear what he said. They could only benefit.
By the way. perhaps he did this radio show for two reasons. One appears to be as a way of getting attention and hence donations for a family with a gravely ill young boy. Pure Karl. Another reason was,
i think, that he really had a lot of fun doing this. Also, pure Karl! Thanks Karl, for everything!
