Arrogance of a Sporting God

Arrogance of a Sporting God Is it arrogance, that makes him so good, Or being so good, that makes him arrogant. Shirt off, chest out, displays egotistic swagger, Pompous superiority, somewhat self-evident. Can you idolise a man without humility? Even if he’s pure genius, a sporting God. With wealth and power verging on obscene, Boots of Gold upon his feet are shod.
