I think he was genuinely humble but the news media is so shallow they actually violate his wishes and idolize him for the sake of their shallow viewers.
Princess Diana can only go so far.

i'm not talking about him - i've never heard of the man. i'm referring to the medias' cult of personality, expanding exponentially the exploits of the famous while deflating those of mere mortal status (but i'll bet the guy employed a press agent at least by proxy thru his sports agent frank bauer). my comments are a critique of the media, the audience and celebritocracy that supports and enables it - not necessarily tillman.
