Unfortunate

The clock is ticking with seconds left, and the score is tied in the game for the title. Point Guard Chris Wright  hits the buzzer beating shot. And the crowd goes wild. Unfortunately if the young basketball player hadn't  heard that play by play yet, he probably won't. He was diagnosed with having MS. Now that the word is out about his disease. It's highly unlikely he will be paid to play basketball again.

The young man is trying to keep a positive attitude, in addition to the positive spin the media is trying  to put on this disaster. But there is no upside to this for Chris Wright. The Dallas Mavericks are happy though, they dodged a bullet. He won't get the benefit of their medical staff and first rate doctors. If there is such a thing. No one has come forward with a cure. To be the first player known to have this disease is no honor. If anything it's a curse. He may be more like the first one to be discovered.  It's not amazing it's unfortunate.
