Maybe it's the change of season to fall, which causes a massive inability to get out of bed in the morning, but this week in sports was rather slow. Perhaps most of the topics circling the airwaves and hitting television sets are topics I've already made comments about.
I did find an article about professional surfer Kelly Slater and how he might be the most underrated athlete in sports. I have a friend who lives in Hawaii, so I've heard of Slater. Instantly I thought, "He's not underrated. I've heard of him," but that doesn't mean the rest of the world knows who he is.
I wanted to get on here and talk about all of his accomplishments and multiple surfing video games he's made, but I'm starting to think he is underrated. He receives less publicity than mainstream professional athletes, but having spent a lot of time with my friend in Hawaii I can say it takes true athleticism and skill to surf. It's something that no professional athlete can successfully do as well as Slater.
Slater helped me realize being underrated doesn't necessarily mean to be underexposed.
