It's not really about Wembayama at all, but a really in-depth feature article on on Weis.

Thought it was a great human interest piece.

Thank you, porthawk.

Great article, highly recommended.

I thought this observation was poignant.

""People in France like to hate," Weis says, mentioning the racist vitriol fans spewed on soccer phenom Kylian Mbappé after a missed penalty kick.

I do not think it is unique to France but luckily it is not everywhere.
