    Cassius is a beautiful name, Haye named his son after him, but Clay was the slave name which he wanted to change.

    Isn't it funny,

    How 'Young Cassius' suddenly got religion when he found out that his number was
    up for the United States Selective Service.

    What A Coincidence .............

    "You know, Cassius fell in love with me, for who I was. Then he wanted me to change, to help
    him with his problems to get out of his commitment to the United States Selective Service."

    "I got the feeling that I was being used as 'a tool'. I was his wife for God's Sake. He wanted me
    to stop living, and become his slave. Isn't that a 'Fucking Spin' on his new found righteousness."

    He was going to change his name anyway and had nothing to do with the draft.

    What else did Cassius Clay tell you, that you bought 'hook, line and sinker'.

    I bet that he could have sold you the Brooklyn Bridge, if he was a 'Bridge Salesman'.

    ~ Read all about it. Man buys 'Brooklyn Bridge' from Cassius Clay {aka; Muhammad Ali} ~

    Bill, you only see the worst in Ali, so there is no talking to you.

    You shouldn't let your eyes be clouded by one man's Boxing Talent and Entertainment Value.

    How much do you really know about Muhammad Ali.

    Just what you read, which was by someone else's opinion. Or what you saw on Television.

    That's not knowing anything in 'real' depth.

    Unless you knew him personally, you do not know him better than anyone else.
