As you well know, I get all my information from the most reliable source possible: my friends. One friend just posted the following breaking news on his Facebook:
the warriors beat the jazz last night + the grizzlies are beating the magic as i type this + the bulls are beating everyone=it's going to be a good year.Let's analyze:
The Warriors have defeated The Jazz.
I'm not sure how to feel about the outcome of this contest, nor who I was rooting for in the beginning. But in the end, how can I not root for a team named after one of my favorite movies? Jazz is sometimes good. But Jazz can also be very bad. However, if any member of The Jazz came out on the court and chanted "Waaaarriors... come out to playeeeaaay", then I will officially root for this team and mourn their loss.
The Grizzlies are currently beating Magic.
That, of course, stands to reason. However, given that Orlando "Magic" Johnson is a 52 year old man with AIDS, the simple fact that he has taken on an entire basketball club by himself makes this a triumph in and of itself.
The Bulls are doing very well at what it is they do.
The Bulls have won championship matches and award-winning tournaments. Is Michael Jackson still their star player, or is he training for another season of baseball after watching the last season of Eastbound and Down? Has Scottie Pippen proven himself as the superior athlete? Will Bill Lambeer be the Larry Bird of 2011? It is too early in the season to tell, friends.
