On one hand, I appreciate Rashard Mendenhalls moderately thoughtful blog post about his retirement. His decision to eschew making the announcement a spectacle with a press conference and media blitz is a very welcome change of pace. On the other hand, if he had scheduled a press conference to make the announcement, would anyone had even bothered to show up? Mendenhall wants his retirement to be seen as a bold athlete going out on his own terms. In reality, it’s simply the desperate attempt of a mediocre athlete with a victim mentality to write his own ending before someone else wrote it for him.
