Jim Thorpe cufflinks, of course, provided by none other than my wife and consumate crew chief, Sarah, for the holidays.A childhood hero of mine, Jim Thorpe has been called "the greatest athlete in the world." As a native American he faced considerable hardship and discrimination. Today he is remembered as America's greatest athlete, a tribute to his innate abilities, gracious sportsmanship, and quiet persistence.
When I was growing up, I knew him as Jim Thorpe, All-American. And that's how I always think of him.
