- Well said!! I think Andre's story is one of hope, forgiveness, healing, grace and restoration. Truely motivational. It is encouraging to see how one person can tackle his adversity and come out on top. No one is perfect so we should not be quick to judge but to be there to support and uplift them!!! Compassion people, Compassion!! Cant wait for his book to arrive in the mail. Would love to meet Andre personally and just to be there to listen and share in his personal experience of pain and the restoration that he has found.

- Having been on the tennis tour, it's not surprising that the few of the top players were involved in drugs. Nevertheless, I think from what I observe Mr. Agassi corrected his wrongs. The past does not equal the future; and he turned his life around to make lives better for other who had not the same privilege. To err is human and to forgive divine. As a teacher in high school and former professional tennis player in my twenties, I commend Mr. Agassi for his courage and his honesty. I think that to acknowledge and confess his wrong doings is the path from repentance, to restitution, to forgiveness. You can know a man is forgiven and has forgiven himself when he confesses his sins (shortcoming) and make restitution by doing good. It is repentance, faith, and good works that will allow him be better than his past. My CONGRATULATIONS to Mr. Agassi! May God bless you to be a wonderful and loving husband, a great and giving father, and a continued generous giver to those who lack opportunity. Best to you!

- i have played and taught tennis over 30 yrs., not happy with everything that andre has done, but it tends to go back to his youth like many others have. For only a 9th grade education, i find him very smart and finally got his stuff together. Remember, i have not walked in his shoes so i can not really judge. apparentally, alot of people have alot of extra luggage to carry from the past. the phrase- he who has not sinned throw the first stone. i remember when no one then threw any more stones. sue
