if anyone deserves to walk away on their own terms, it's the indomitable Michael Ray Wilbon. from professional idol, to colleague, to friend, I will always root for him in every path he takes. the story below is old, but for those who have not known his grace, give it a read

quick personal story for. if you don’t know, this is @RealMikeWilbon. 20+ years ago, this man very much changed the course of my career and thus life. To casually see him around the studio and be friends with him is still sorta surreal, no matter how many times we kick it.
