All your blathering about context doesn't change the fact that he wasn't involved, and no one (other than you) is saying he was.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Finally, I guess you missed that little item about Jordan's dad being brutally murdered. Ever wonder why baseball, in the aftermath of the Rose fiasco, would sign to a contract an athlete on suspension for gambling? Repeat after me: The absence of proof is innuendo.

You found four games in the NBA, a winter sport,that were postponed out of approximately 7,500 played since 2000 in a league that includes games in N.Y., Portland, Seattle, Minnesota, Toronto, Boston and the Rust Belt. Unfortunately, the blogger's reading comprehension problems continue. You say that that in January 04,Memphis had two games postponed due to ice and snow. Seems you haven't quite mastered this new Internet thing. One of the games involving Memphis was postponed because the team couldn't travel to St. Lake City --not because of snow in the venue where the game takes place. The other was postponed due to "freezing rain and ice" in Portland, it wasn't snow. In neither instance was the game postponed due to "a little snow." Oh and the columnist points out that the C's haven't been snowed out in 28 years, but why let the facts about what he was writing about get in the way of a good rant.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Not sure of the point behind the comment about the Gretzky wiretap, since it was based on the context every newspaper in America gave it. The columnist's reference to Gretzky's wiretapped musings was clearly in the context of Gretzky's wondering aloud of the damage the public allegations would do.<BR/><BR/> And as for Jordan and gambling, there is substantial evidence that he bet heavily, in casinos and on the golf course, in the time leading up to his 'retirement'. <BR/><BR/>Today's entry reads like the droppings of the daily Republican spin machine; avoid the story by taking minutia out of context.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
