Big Baby Miller And The Question of Confidence

Big Baby Miller And The Question of Confidence

By: Sean Crose

I’ve spoken with Jarrell “Big Baby” Miller several times. He’s an interesting guy – one who is fascinating to talk to. Needless to say, I haven’t spoken to the man since he was popped for banned substances back in 2019. Now I hear he was popped for the same thing again, and that his July comeback fight has been canceled. There’s something about repeat offenders that fascinates us. It’s only natural, really. Why, we ask ourselves, do some people never learn their lesson? The offenders themselves might not even have an answer. The news of Miller getting busted for PED use again, however, has me thinking of other matters.


Miller, when we spoke, always struck me with his confidence. Unlike most of us, the guy was the picture of self assurance. He talked hard, worked hard, and fought hard. There seemed to be a lot of go to back up his show. Miller, in short, didn’t strike me as someone who questioned whether or not he could support the hype surrounding him with action. Clearly, though, the man wasn’t as confident as he appeared. It begs the question of whether or not he was confident at all, and if that famous swagger was all just a ruse.


It’s a strange thing, confidence. Everyone has it to some degree or other, but only a few among us can truly be referred to as confident with a capital C. None of us, for example, probably question whether or not we can make toast. We’ve done it before and will do it again. We don’t pause on the way to the kitchen to ask ourselves if we truly have what it takes to pull it off. We’re confident in our ability, and rightfully so. How many of us, however, have that same confidence when we make our way into a job interview? Not many of us, I’d be willing to bet. Lots of fighters, though, walk into a ring, sometimes before millions of viewers, looking like they have the same easy confidence the rest of us do going about everyday tasks.


They’re a rare breed, fighters, particularly boxers. Stepping in front of the public, boxers risk not only taking a world class beating, but also getting slowly humiliated by someone they absolutely, positively cannot effectively lay a glove on. In a very authentic sense, boxing truly is the roughest of sports. Confidence is required just to slip through the ropes. What exact kind of confidence does a fighter require, though? Muhammad Ali might offer some insight. For it was Ali who admitted to saying he was the greatest before he even knew he was. Add that to Mike Tyson’s honest comments on the nature of fear and we’re left with the idea that confidence is many times merely a mask to hide behind, or even an act of pretending to ourselves, rather than it is a genuine feeling.


In the case of Miller, and far too many others, confidence can prove to be a flimsy mask indeed.

А на початку цього року мені пощастило побувати Кельні. Зрештою, Німеччину об’їздила з заходу на схід, з півночі на південь. «Учитель німецької мови та літератури» – навчальна програма на Педагогічному факультеті Трнавського університету в Словаччині, що дозволяє студентам отримати весь спектр лінгвістичних, літературних та дидактичних знань і набути високих мовних навичок німецької мови.

    Cette fois, il a peut-être bien réglé le débat. Déjà détenteur de 24 tournois du Grand Chelem, un record absolu, Novak Djokovic a ajouté la seule ligne qui manquait à son palmarès en remportant les Jeux Olympiques face à Carlos Alcaraz. À 37 ans, le natif de Belgrade est plus que jamais seul au monde dans le panthéon du tennis, lui qui a toujours rêvé d’en arriver là. Fonctionnalité manquante? Nous travaillons dur pour développer d’autres jeux de puzzles et chaque bonne idée compte. Appuyez sur le bouton “Commentaires” sur la droite et faites-nous connaître vos idées! Le mercure va monter très haut pour la fin des JO. La France connaît en effet ce dimanche une nouvelle vague de chaleur avec jusqu’à 40°C dans le Sud-Ouest et 25 départements en vigilance orange canicule. Comme annoncé par Météo-France, les Pyrénées-Orientales, l’Aude et l’Hérault sont redescendus en vigilance jaune à 6 heures.

    La pantalla de inicio de webOS 24 con las categorías Home Office, Game, Music, Home Hub y Sports. La parte inferior de la pantalla muestra recomendaciones personalizadas bajo “Top picks for you”. Balloon App no es solo un juego, es una forma de ganar dinero real mientras te diviertes. Si te gusta la idea de ganar dinero inflando globos virtuales, Balloon App Venezuela es definitivamente algo que debes probar. Una acogedora sala de estar tenuemente iluminada, un televisor OLED de LG que muestra a una pareja usando un paraguas y gráficos circulares brillantes que rodean la habitación. Logotipo de Dolby Atoms en la esquina inferior izquierda. **Todos los modelos G4, C4 y B4 cuentan con la certificación “Environmentally Evaluated”. El objetivo principal del juego Balloon es retirar la apuesta antes de que el globo explote. Cada ronda comienza con un pequeño multiplicador que aumenta gradualmente. Los jugadores pueden retirar su apuesta en cualquier momento, y si lo hacen antes de que el globo explote, su apuesta se multiplica por el multiplicador actual. Si el globo explota antes de retirar, pierden toda la apuesta. El juego requiere decisiones rápidas, ya que cuanto más esperes, mayor será el multiplicador, pero también aumenta el riesgo.

    En el modo “Egipto”, el clásico reventador de globos, elimina tantos globos del mismo color como sea posible. Si encuentras y revientas un globo del mismo color que el globo anterior, ganarás más puntos. ¡Este modo es muy fácil y solo está dedicado para niños o incluso para niños pequeños! En la era digital, es común encontrar programas o aplicaciones que prometen ayudarte a ganar en juegos de azar o mejorar tus probabilidades. Sin embargo, es crucial ser cauteloso. Muchos de estos “hacks” o “predictores” no solo no funcionan, sino que pueden contener malware o virus que pueden dañar tu dispositivo o robar tu información. Además, el uso de trucos en juegos en línea suele estar estrictamente prohibido y puede resultar en la suspensión o eliminación de tu cuenta. Siempre es mejor jugar limpio, disfrutar del proceso y confiar en tu suerte y habilidades.
