I like Adrian Wojnarowski?
The Lakers are up 2-0. I’m probably gonna cry if they win (I want to say “when they win” but I don’t want to jinx it.) Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports is becoming one of favorite sports writers in an interesting twist of fate because I used to really hate him. This is probably because he’s not writing too many anti-Kobe articles anymore. Yeah I’m biased as shit, but in my defense, even when he wote blistering diatribes crucifying the Artist Formerly Known as The Ocho, I always respected his writing ability which has always been top notch. This probably why I still read every article he wrote even though they were blasphemous. He recently wrote some great articles about Shaq’s pettiness and Pau’s not-softness that you should check out.
John Hollinger has a good article?
I normally hate John Hollinger but this article is great. After reading it I understand more where he’s coming from. I’d hate Kobe too if everytime I said X basketball player had a good game I got The Laker Nation flooding my inbox calling me an X player dick rider. I also thought it was hilarious that after the Magic beat the Cavs he got more mail from Laker fans dogging on Lebronze.
Lebronze!
On a funny note, I call Lebron Lebronze because of he always seems to come in third in world competition. Seeing as how the Nuggets were eliminated before the Craboliers, Lebronze came in third again.
The Mighty Fed!
Roger Federer finally won the French and I couldn’t be happier. In my opinion this victory should easily make him the greatest of all time and it kind of bugs me that it’s still up for debate. Think about it: 14 titles, career grand slam, 20 straight semi-finals (17 of which were finals appearances), 237 (i think) weeks at number 1. That’s easily better than Sampras. Don’t even bring up Rod Laver. Rod Laver was definately more dominant for his time, but that was a long time ago. If they played today at their primes, it would be over in straights. Bringing up his shaky record against Nadal is valid, but during his prime The Mighty Fed only played Nadal on clay. Nadal couldn’t even meet him on the hard courts. Hell, he couldn’t even meet him at this year’s French.
I think now that he has the monkey off his back he’ll start playing more like The Mighty Fed of old, instead of The Mighty Old Fed.
