I have been criticized by folks in my time, and it's not fun. But I have never been criticized by Bill Walton. Now I don't take that to mean that he approves of what I do; I take it to mean that he has no idea who I am. And in this sense, I know what it feels like to be a hobo. And you know what? It feels pretty darn good. Hobos never need to feel the sting of being told to "get a rebound" or "make a shot". Walton will never walk up to them and tell them to "fry that dumpling" or "ferment this orange". I'm not saying the hobo life is an easy one, but not being critized by Bill Walton has to make life a little bit easier than it otherwise would be.
