Not much other than the reference to high school sports. Once in awhile I post something non-sports related. Curious: did you enjoy the read or just wonder the whole time why it wasn't about sports?
Posted Monday July 18, 2011, About: With NFL Lock-Out Ending, It's Time for Favre's Return
LoveItHateIt. Thanks for your feedback. I actually have made up my mind and made it clear, I believe. I want the NFL season to be nixed for this coming season, and I don't want Favre to return. I hope it was clear I was joking all the way about wanting another Favre summer-long soap opera. Nobody wants that again.

Thanks for your comment, what's_amatta_u. Good insights. I was comparing Jimmer's college career to that of Maravich of Bird. All three led the nation in scoring their senior years. All three had the chance to lead their teams deep into the NCAA tourney. All three came from small towns and, through hard work, made themselves great college players. All three proved to be especially thrilling to watch. And all three were exceptionally accurate shooters from long range, and guys like this are a joy to watch. In fact, I would argue that from long distance Jimmer might be the best shooter of the three. I did not say Jimmer would do as well in the pros as Bird and Pistol. Bird and Pistol were once in a lifetime players who could do it so many things well. Jimmer does three things well but not as many as those two. He shoots well, creates his own shot well, and dribbles and dishes to teammates well. Comparing Jimmer is Adam Morrison is a bit insulting to Jimmer. While at least as good a shooter as Adam, Jimmer is better at creating his own shot, handling the ball and passing. He is much closer to a point guard than Adam has ever been. Plus, you can't overlook Jimmer's heart and work ethic. My gut tells me he has a bigger heart and is willing to work harder than Morrison. Therefore, he will be more successful in the pros.
