(oh yeah ... you might think that I would include a game recap that matches the quote above. you'd be wrong.)
It's my site; I can do that. Three giant scribbles based on gnostic interpretation of Sportscenter highlights? Boom.
#13: Tim Duncan
Riiiight.
later you have to love the look on Varejao's face after that TD charge, like "yes! All those hours of practice paid off"
one Pacifico later I'm experimenting with the necessity of commentators ... TAKING SIDES Jeff vanG vs Ghostface
- "But today I thought, 'I could at least show them that I could keep fighting'."
- "It was like an old-time attack. Like Merckx."
- "I came here to win the Tour and that's what I still want to do, and I'm not done fighting yet."
Oh, and the Times daily coverage sucks.
Update: ok that's prob'ly not what he said, see this awesome comment.
Here's where I keep collecting things Materazzi is supposed to have said:
- "Play for your own country" according to French TV
- Called Zidane a bastard (according to some random dude)
- Said something about his mother (according to French newspaper)
- Something racist
- OR possibly all of the above!!!
NBA legend Oscar Robertson has a blog. Sadly, he's lost some of his faculties:
A strong bench is obviously important and here again I think the two teams are pretty evenly matched, with Lindsey Hunter, Antonio McDyess and Elden Campbell for Detroit, Brent Barry, Robert Horry, and possibly Glenn Robinson – who hasn’t played that much thus far – for the Spurs. (emphasis mine)
WHAT THE FUCK, OSCAR.
Some of the best basketball writing I've ever read. God bless Rupert Murdoch.
"If you like basketball at all, if you've ever cared about it, you need to catch one of these Mavs-Rockets games and see what Tracy McGrady is doing. He just submitted the two best all-around playoff performances by a non-big man since MJ."
TRUTH
No, really. And man, he's even more scathing about Minnesota than regular pundits.

Damn, apparently that pink spot on his right sock was blood.

Wolves over the Lakers in seven, yeah. And the Target Center explodes.
KG has got to be the only top-flight baller ever to compare himself to a little girl chasing a butterfly.
20 questions
I dunno, I think I liked it better on Slate.
The Brits seem unhappy about the USA's performance. What happened to the "special relationship"?
Oh, I see: The Guardian takes the piss out of everyone...it's better than being patronised as plucky underdogs.
So I'm lacking bona fides. But it pisses me off that after such a great start the New York Times still says stuff like "logic dictates" that the Sox will fade at the end of the season. What? I mean surely the Times would be above petty regional rivalries...
