    Kentan Facey spreading basketball in Jamaica

    Facey is one of those guys whose impact was effected by adopting the sport relatively late . If he was introduced to the sport younger he possibly could have had an NBA career. Hopefully his influence will enhance the trajectory of some young Jamaican’s career.

    Still great, but overrated athletes

    He played at a time when every wideout was hit on every play coming off the line by some of toughest CB ever. It was open season on wideouts and he retired before he ended up with serious injury . I couldn’t even imagine how potent a Steeler offense would be with that great offensive line ...
