The Gem of the 2003 Draft
Quote:
He was patient. Always was, still is.
Carlos Delfino was a kid growing up in Santa Fe, Argentina, trying to find his niche, something he would succeed at for the rest of his life. He was only 8 years old, and extremely active.
First came swimming.
"For me, the first thing I did when I was young was jump in the pool -- my head was very big," said Delfino, gesturing with his hands that he had an inflated ego, "but I wasn't very fast."
Then came soccer, followed by volleyball, and even a few dreams of becoming a lawyer.
Next up was gymnastics. Delfino liked the rings.
"It helped a lot with my coordination," Delfino said. "Stretching, everything -- it was great."
But it wasn't him.
