How do you go about convincing a soon-to-be-drafted NFL prospect that “planets” and “space” are real? I’m not talking about a flat earth discussion…but “planets” and “space”.
You’d think I was trolling, but I’m not. Other than rolling your eyes, how would a professional in this space go about dropping the mic on someone like this, without requiring hours and hours of classroom conversation. Do you take them to a telescope? Do you show them pictures? Do you draw a simple picture that’s been proven to sway folks like this?
