fan-fucking-tastic

I don't know if any of you cares about the NBA, but, shit, what a fucking travesty of a Finals this year. You gotta read Bill Simmon's article about this; he's dead on about nearly everything he says in the article.

Look, Dwyane Wade is an incredible player, obvi. No one is disputing that. But the levels the league has gone to in order to assure a victory for him and the Heat is absolutely disgraceful. Simmons is dead on when he says this is all about the NBA protecting its outdated superstar-driven money machine. It's short-sighted, wholly appalling, and compromises the integrity of the sport, the fans, and degrades us as a country and a people. David Stern may, in fact, be an Al Qaeda sleeper cell. Why do you hate our freedom, David Stern? WHY?!?!?!
