But then there's Deion Sanders, also notorious for using the self-referential
third person, and who is no shrinking violet (in fact he's unshrinking enough
to have TWO nicknames, Neon Deion and Prime Time). He's also a two-sport pro,
like Bo was (same two, in fact), but somehow I don't think that's a relevant
variable. But Kate may be onto something in the association of this
dissociative tendency with insecurity about oneself. Larry
