At first, I couldn't really see anything. I could only hear. I could hear the woodcarver kind of walking around, picking up stuff. He painted eyes on my face, and I could see.

Welcome back to SNAP JUDGMENT, the "Striker" episode. Now in sports, you hear incessantly about the legendary players that defined the game. This hero worship is supported by a rapid base of fans, but, you've got to be a pretty hard-core fan to become a legend in your own right.
