Have you ever been in one of thos highfalutin nightclub scenes where everyone is either a model or a jock and you feel like Billy Barty in The Wizard of Oz?Well, I'm five foot, eight inches tall, and that's how I felt at the ESPYs. You're meeting people and constantly raising your hand above your head to just shake hands while you say, "Hi, how are you, Amazon woman?" Or "Hello, Amazon sir." You're in this forest of giant bodies, and you're only coming up to everybody's navel.
